anzo Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 The headphones that come with the Sony W800i phone...unbeatable. They're 30 quid at The Link phone shop, a bit steep but well worth it.They plug into your ear and block out outside noise, as well as saying firm in your ear. Although the wire is really short on them, so you'll also need an extension cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodster90 Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 (edited) I recommend sennheiser mx500£20job done.if sennheiser is good enough for broadcasters , bbc etc its good enough for usthey go very very loud without any distortion on my ipod mini.Also you can get them in white, however that just advertises you have a £200 ipod in your pocket, so go for the black ones.

Not sure what the jack size is like on the w800 ones, i'm not sure if it's standard size.Only problem with the in-ear headphones is that the rubber plug bits can get lost, but they give you spares.

Danny Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 I had some Sennheiser MX550's and although the sound quality and volume was excellent the build quality was rubbish and they soon fell appart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-Stop Junkie Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 http://www.sonystyle.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP....pia%2e%2fEarbudbest earphones I have ever boughtI agree. I'm now on my second pair of these, and will buy a third when my current ones break. They're discreet, block out ambient sound well, and sound fantastic.They feel a little at first, but now I can't go back to normal earphones. These are even better than my Sennheisers or MoS DJ headphones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicH_87 Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 probably no use but i got some Grado Sr60's. They are awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 I recommend sennheiser mx500£20Sennheiser have a very good reputation but I must say I am disappointed by the mx500s I have. They do the job but I don't believe they are anything special. And I saw some being sold for £7, which annoyed me when I spent £20 on them...

MadManMike Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 I stock the whole Sennheiser range in my shop - awesome 'phones right from the bottom of the range... PX200's are nice and should stay on while your riding...MX500's are nice but will fall out unless you have deformities.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janson Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 AKG K26P. Been using these puppies for a while, they're wicked.Block a fair bit of noise out, feels like they're more neturally EQ:ed than the Koss PortaPro phones i had before. The kosses were THE bass machine headphones of the size, but they make my head hurt, and the plug broke.Block loads of traffic noise, airplane noise, buses, etc out. I even play a metronome in them sometimes when drumming with my band, and it doesn't hurt my ears. I can't play as loud as usual but meh, practise room ain't big.I'm sure there are better phones for the buck about, but I like mine loads.

Onza Kieron Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 OIt's all about the JVC Gummy headfphones, They're sweet, cheap and look cool, im on my second pair now, first blue, these pink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaXsteri Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 My Shure E2C's have been awesome, although they are earphones rather than headphones if that matters to you. And are a little more expensive than those already mentioned but they are worth it. They block pretty much all outside noise and are super comfortable Theres loads of reviews on amazon and avforums.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krisboats Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 I agree. I'm now on my second pair of these, and will buy a third when my current ones break. They're discreet, block out ambient sound well, and sound fantastic.They feel a little at first, but now I can't go back to normal earphones. These are even better than my Sennheisers or MoS DJ headphones.I also have these, the only thing they don't seem to like is if you're going to be wearing them around the back of your neck whilst riding.. the sweat from your neck does something to the rubber and they perish quite quickly afterwards. However i had a new set at christmas and theres no sign of them doing it yet.. my others were on there way out by this time last year.They do sound amazing though, the bass especially. It just makes the songs fell alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
