I've been on the hunt for a while now for some new earbuds for my iPod. I like to fancy myself as having a discerning ear when it comes to music, while I'm no audophile I thought the earbuds included with the iPod held their own when compared to other's I've used.
Last year I purchased a pair of Philips HE592 earbuds, those lasted about 4 months before I went running back to my original iPod buds. Stay clear of those things, they are painful, seriously they could be used as torture devices, if paired with the Ashley Simpson Orangebowl performance.
Today I purchased my latest set, the Sony MDR-EX71SL, compared to the HE592's these are nirvana! They're actually scary, I can't hear a darn thing with them on. I'm going to have to weigh the benefits of exercising with these in. I may only workout with them not run, they block out sound that well. Of course they sound awesome, I can hear notes in my music that I never noticed before.
At $49 they are a bit on the steep side, but the sound and noise cancelling capabilities are excellent. It was between these and the official Apple in-ear which I could only locate at CompUSA. Has anyone used those?
