Hey Everybody,
I recently started going back to the gym and want to hear some tunes while I workout.  So, I'm looking to buy some new sports headphones that sound great!  I can't use ear buds because they are too uncomfortable feeling, so it would have to be on the ear.  After a quick web search, I found the Koss KSC 75's and the Polk Ultrafit 2000.  Does anybody have experience with either of these or something better?  I have a set of Senn HD-600's that I like but they're way to bulky for the gym plus the sweat would probably ruin them.
 
As a source I'd be using my iphone 3g.  I do have a portable Pico amp/dac, but I'm not sure I'll be using it for this application.
 
Thanks,
Ernie

Are you still looking for input?
 
Edit: I see that you found a solution here:

I hope the Klipsch S4 works out for you (I am not familiar at all).
 
All I was going to say is that the KSC75's are rather incredible for the $20 price tag. However, I think they sound better (and are more convenient) on the Parts-express headband rather than on the ear clips. Fwiw!
