Then what do you prefer?
Posted by spikeyjac
really like the ipod ones...
sony?
but like i said really looking 4 ipod headphones
Posted by QVGA
I don't know what you mean by 'ipod' ones as according to me there are only 2 ipod headphones by Apple and they arnt particularly great, one being the stock and the other relatively expensive (40$).
Or if you meant headphones for ipod, then any 3.5mm ones will work.
And i would avoid cheaper sony ones as well as they have the infamous 'cord rubber peeling off eventually' problem.
SONY Fontopia Series MDREX51LP is the only ~7pound earphone i could find.

the reason why i say they are crap is simply because of their sound quality. Bass is very distorted, etc etc etc. thats just one of the reasons. spend a little more mate and buy a set thats gonna last you. This way you dont have to keep spending 7gbp all the time.
get some sennheisers (spelling?) or sony or something,
Posted by scottt
Yeah get some Sennheiser CX300's i have them got them off ebay for £13.99, excellent set of budget headfones which are ideal replacements for ipod headfones etc....
and best off all you can get em in white which for you is obviously the reason why you want a pair of ipod headfones.....

i dont know why people spend over £100 on an mp3 player but dont spend any money on headphones ??? Headphones are the most important part, they make the music you listen to sound better!
Ive got some ipod headphones somewhere, i dont know where though. Ill see if i can find them and let you know

get a set of W810i head phones. then go to argos and buy the sony inear ones that are arround £25 take out the extension and then take them back
Posted by spikeyjac
i personally dont find anything wrong with the sound quality, and although people say its bad thats just my opinion.
I do like the look of them though
although i do like black headphones as well.

Sounds like you want a nice looking pair.
In my opinoin the ipod headphones are rubbish for quality, i think i left mine on the plane.
I also dont get why people will spend over £100 on an mp3 player and less on heaphones.
I have shure E4c's bit on the pricey side but had them for a while and they have done me well. Excellent noise cancelling, look good (come in black), second to none sound quality(great frequency range) never had or used a better pair of heaphones.
I used to rock sony headphones but they broke too easily, just pick up some extremely cheap sont ones and they should do you, they come it white too...

@Jack
You probably dont find anything wrong with ipod earphones quality because thats all you have been used to, upgrade to a better pair from the likes of Schure, Sennheiser or Sony and you will notice a comparitive differance
Posted by spikeyjac
yeah i see what you mean scottt..
Il just wait and use the ones u get with my ipod when i get it, and then buy some better ones when i need to really, or can afford it.
Other things i have to buy as well
Posted by >500
@spikey
you can always buy my Sony player i have for sale here in non mobile section
. Much better quality than ipod imho, sounds way better. And comes with great headphones as standard, worth about $100aud+ on their own.
