Stevo985 Posted May 16, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 16, 2016 I'm the same @sidcow I hate those deep in ear headphones, the ones that are like ear plugs. I don't know if the inline volume works on them, and they'll probably be overpriced for what you want if you have to buy them on their own, but I find the headphones you get free with iphones are actually really good. Got some free with my work phone and use them in the gym. They're decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Mee Audio make some decent headphones. The cool thing is that you can replace the wire on them which for me is always the first thing to break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakotaDakota Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 You can't get much better than Beyerdynamic DT770 pro for around the £100 mark, The 32 Ohm version is aimed more at the mobile/tablet market but there isn't a great deal of difference between the classic 80Ohm version other than the ear cushion material which is nice & furry on the 80 & that soft pleather type stuff on the 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 I purchased this combination. Sony MDR-1AS headphones and the Sony NWZ-A15 walkman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I got one of those ear buds stuck in my ear, luckily i managed to get it out but screw them I'm not using using noise cancelling in ear ones again. I sent the sony pair back, base is over powering and got the AKG N60NC. instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Audeze iSine 10 and 20 are world's first in-ear planar magnetic headphones 2nd September 2016 by Joe Cox image: http://images.cdn.whathifi.com/sites/whathifi.com/files/styles/big-image/public/brands/news/2016-sept/audeze_in-ear.jpg?itok=rxkuqN-V These planar magnetic in-ear headphones look like nothing else on the market, and Audeze is promising they sound like nothing else either. Audeze is well known for its planar magnetic headphones but has previously focused on mid- to high-end over-ear designs, from the EL-8 to the LCD-3. Now, for the first time, the company has squeezed its headphone tech into in-ear headphones. The iSine 10 and iSine 20 earphones sport 30mm planar magnetic diaphragms, while keeping the weight down to just 20g - even if they're still one of the more obtrusive-looking pair of earphones you're likely to see. That light weight will help to ensure they remain comfortable despite the larger-than-average in-ear design - we can testify they do feel comfortable - and an over-ear hook design will aim to keep them in place.

Both pairs come with Audeze's Cipher Lightning cable, delivering 24-bit digital audio from an iPhone, iPad or iPod, and coming complete with an in-line amp and DAC - just in time for Apple to remove the 3.5mm headphone jack on the next iPhone. The Audeze iOS app allows you to customise your sound experience even further.

Davkaus Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 I'd be reluctant to spend that much on in ear headphones no matter how good they are, they'll still doubtlessly fall foul of the commute and break far too quickly, I treat in ears as disposable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to, until I bought some ridiculously expensive in ear headphones where the lead can be replaced - the actual speaker bits are removable. I've had them maybe 8-10 years now, and got through 1 lead only (i.e. I'm on the second one). The lead is Kevlar reinforced and I reckon despite the very high cost compared to most headies, they've been well worth it for the use I've had from them and the sound quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can get 24bit audio with my sony walkman mp3 player but dont think you can on the ipod but just wondering how these are for noise cancellation.

Demitri_C Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) Anyone got any recommendations on good wireless headphones? My wired ones seem to be on their last legs now. I prefer the bigger ones to the small ones you stick in your ears I am currently looking at These Edited July 13, 2017 by Demitri_C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer the bigger ones to the small ones you stick in your ears I am currently looking at These I use these. Never had any complaints with them whatsoever. Great sound, bluetooth wireless, on-ear, USB charging (same as phone), great battery, skip back/forward through tracks via roller button on the headset. Same button can (push &) receive phone-calls and there's a mic (hidden somewhere). TBH I lucked into them as I was almost buying another set. When I got them they were €50 but that link has them at £20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
