I use seinheizer buds, not cheap but great quality if you take your music seriously. Used the JVC marshmallows before that, can't beat the sound for that price. Bought some skull candy's while on the road once and made it about a mile and tossed them in the trash, they sounded like the gas station specials they were
"All of the New Line Plugfones styles are the same except for the Contractor VL."
They're just different colors.

I cant stand the jelly ends that come on most ear buds. I am currently using an older pair of skull candy with comply foam tips. If you haven't tried comply tips before, I suggest picking up a variety pack to find what is right for you.

I tried several different kinds and types, looking for something that had good sound, was comfortable, durable and had some noise isolating qualities. Everyones ears and likes are different and it comes down to a personal choice. That being said, I found that Klipsch earbuds works for me. About $75.

I use the Shure SE215. They are somewhat pricey but the sound is amazing in them. They also come with foam tips for sound isolation.

the only luck i've ever had with ear phones for my mp3 player have been the marshmellow kind from jvc. only because they can go right in your ear and you get decent bass response. the ones with the jelly ends never seem to sound good. can anyone recommend something that sounds good other than something that costs 300 bucks. i had the kind that they sell at bike shows, the ones that get molded to your inner ear. they lasted a year then one side had to be repaired, and then only lasted another 6 months.

I use helmet speakers made by U Clear. $40 at Cycle Gear and they sound very good.

I've always had problems keeping any ear bud type in my ear. Been using these for over an year now and very happy with them. comes with 3 different sizes of buds, ear hooks work well and is Android and (from what I was told) Iphonie compatible.
