I can not get along with those ear bud earphones. I much prefer listening to music with Sennheiser PX200's. Very easy on the ear and go well with my IPOD.

The best thing to do with buds...

I can think of another orafice, make a sub-woofer.

[rogers_barton]

I still believe that Sennheiser make the best monitor headphones.

I normally hate those horrid white Apple earphones, however I tried the ones that came with my I,phone 4S (with in built mic) and they actually sounded pretty good. The Tron Legacy soundtrack sounded pretty punchy.

I reckon itis alright, but....

WTF?

[ryanedward85]

Decided to purchase a pair of AKG K460 in white (Quincey Jones) These look to be the best headphones for me to use and I should get no fatigue using these.
Plus they have microphone so can use to make and receive calls.

Also the Apple white headphones spill a lot of noise outwards - very annoying on public transport.

There's been informal calls in Melbourne for trains to have ipod-free carriages, dunno how that would get through, altho one day I had some knob playing his nu-metal straight out of the speakers sans headphones... mmm the best way to listen to nu-metal, all tinny and shite-like - made a good case for them

I know that when I'm working on a mixing project, I'll mix for up to an hour and then step away for a 10 minute break and just rest my ears. Or I'll just take a lunch break and get back to it after I eat. I try not to mix for more than hour without resting my ears for at least 10 minutes though.

I've found the more you drink and smoke, the better everything sounds. So, there must be some sort of ear fatigue relief in drinking and weed. I'm happy to participate in a clinic or scientific test of this... but would prefer not to be on the palcebo team, if that's OK. I don't care what you think, i'll know the difference.

That would explain why everyone is either stoned or drunk when they go to see Justine Bieber in concert.

[Jester_Fu]

There's a Justine Beiber? Is she hot?? I'd totally do the boy Beiber if he had boobs... so i guess a girl Beiber would be just awesage.

Oh, and i recind my previous offer to participate in clinical/scientific testing if a requirement is to remix or listen to a Beiber album. Even for 5 seconds. Unless the girl Beiber is given me gobies... in which case i'll stay for the required 15 seconds.

You must be pretty stoned and drunk is he's turned into a she!

[rogers_barton]

I think the spelling mistake was intentional, seeing how he looks and sounds like a bitch.

[Mark Shaw]

Indeed it was intentional. Noman should sound like that....ever.

If you truly enjoy listening to music I really don't see the point in buying buds/ in the ear headphones. There is no way you are going to get the full sound range with those shitty little things. Plus they can make your ears very sore and in some folks it enduces vertigo like affects. Get a decent set od over the ear cans and enjoy the sound.

[Weeks_Alf]

My two favorite brands of headphones are AKG and Sennheiser. Best sound bar none.
