Question

i really need a new pair of ear phones, but cant decide what to get. i dont like earbuds, because they fall out of my ears. i dont mind ear phones that go around the back of my neck. i was thinking about inner ear phones, but i dont know it theyre good or worth it or anything like that. whatever you think, they have to be under twenty dollars. thanks for your help, guys.

Answer 1

I bought a pair of Sony EX51Lsomething in-ear earbuds. These aren't the circle shape of the regular earbuds which fell out of my ears and were uncomfortable. My EX51's have a soft silicon eartip, which fit like earplugs. I can hear the bass real good, but be careful. Don't turn up the volume too loud or they will cause hearing loss. I turn them up loud enough where I can still hear background noise, like people talking or my office phone ringing.
These cost me around $40, but you can get less expensive brands like Phillips or Memorex. I bought mine at Best Buy.

Answer 2

Supposedly it's easier to damage your hearing with inner ear phones as they're closer to the eardrum. Get the outer ones and watch the volume level.

Answer 3

Have the headphones be sumthing that would be designed as a headset for a cellphone. Any headsets of that design is meant to be affordable, comfortable, and durable. Personally, I use my DJ equiment headsets to tune everybody else out, lol. Good luck!

Answer 4

Get the Sony MDR-EX51 from amazon.com. They're very comfortable, sound great, and are pretty cheap too!
