    • Can anyone recommend some decent in-ear headphones with a nice bass boost and block out external sounds?

    • I had the old version of these and they were good
      My friend had these and they are similar to the ones that came with my walkman phone and are also very good.

    • I heard the sennheiser ones were very good. I have two pairs of sennheiser headphones - one wireless and one wired, they're both good, with plenty of good feedback about both from other people [reviews on amazon is the reason i purchased them].

      I could do with some better in-earphones, the ones that came with my sansa mp3 player pull apart so aren't suitable for work, and the philips ones i bought instead are very good but the rubber surround on the ear piece is getting lose.

      This is what I use. Pretty good. And a very good price on amazon. I've had 2 pairs. £35 in hmv.

    • there's a couple of posts on the amazon page telling people to beware of fake's, appears people have bought fake ones through amazon marketplace.

    • Those Sennheisers look good, do you get much noise from the cable rustling against your clothes or if you're walking?

      A bit. But they're easily the best I've tried in that sort of price range.

    • same... its fairly minimal, and a lot better than others that i've tried.

      I had a good pair of shure ones as well.... but can't remember the model number

    • I liked the ones I got with me ipod but I bought some of those sennheisers cos apparently it's not cool to keep your original ipod headphones.

      The white cable's an advertisement to muggers
    •  EggyEggy
    • I'd walk around with white headphones and a shitty mp3 player, just to piss them off....did you see that look of disappointment when they found out it wasn't an ipod! ha!

      You using the right sized buds and got them pushed in properly?
      Mine sound amazing
    •  DonnyDonny
    • Really? ahahah I probably need a diagram and lessons in how to use them properly.

      Got the smallest buds cos they fit in my tiny ears.

      They look like torture devices... i'd give the SS everything if they came at me with those.

      I really like my sennheisers... my main problem with others is that the bass is far too heavy.
    •  DonnyDonny
    • Okay so now one sounds great after messing about with it, and the other sounds awful.

      Since when did you need a degree to wear earphones?

      Fuck me I'm old.
    •  HopkinsHopkins
    • They need to be pushed in so it stops the external noise escaping

      The one that sounds great, fiddle with the cable and listen to the noise it makes in your ear. That's whne you know it's in properly
