Hi All,
 
I need new headphones for running and biking outside.  I will also use them for other everyday activitis as well.  What and why would you recommend any of these?  I have not listened to any of them and may not have a chance to do so for awhile.  The GR-07 get great reviews.  But, would they work for these activities?
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Bill

I have the Bose ie2 for running outside and they work really well. They stay in, sound pretty good and I can hear things around me which is key. I've used a pair of Westone's running and they slipped a little in my ears and isolated a little too much for outdoor use IMO. I think it's really important to hear your surroundings when you're outside.

Avoid bose, gr07 definetely better.se215 stays on ear bad- tested myself. Cheap option us gr06 or even soundmagic e30 which stays perfectly.

These are my personal favorite for sound/exercise or otherwise. They have never fallen out and I use them everyday.

I use the se215 for mountain biking and they work very well for that.
