So, I've used some PX100s for almost 7 years, and, more recently, some Sportapros, for exercise on an elliptical device. Tried the iGrado: Great sound but hated the fit. I needed something much more portable for exercise during travel: Bought the PK3s. They worked well for a time. Some months ago, they began malfunctioning, in some sort of weird way: Much crackling, and occasionally they seem to shock my ears.
Complicating this: 1. I started back running (after a 30 year hiatus) about a year ago. At present, I'm using some PMX 100s for running. SQ not as good at the older PX, but they stay on. The PX100s and Sportapros do not stay on well during exercise.
2. I can't stand IEMs for exercise. Tried. More than once. Not an option.
I need new travel buds. Considering the PK2. Are they better constructed than the PK3? Has anyone else had PK3s fail?
I've read about 100 threads in the last few days about exercise and 'phones. Most people like IEMs. The PX100 is the other big choice. However, I have to have buds for travel (I travel with only carry on bags, and it's already a huge stretch to carry workout gear on a business trip).
What say you?
Thanks.
