    So mine broke, and it fucking sucks.
    It's time to get a new pair though, and I know that you might not be the best group of people to ask, but what experiences have you had headphone-wise?
    Anything you might recommend? I'm preferably looking for those in-ear type headphones, around 60-80$.

    I hate buying stuff, especially headphones, without reading reviews about them. There's some headphones that are pretty shitty, and I like to hear my music nice and clear.
    Anyways, any input that you guys have would be appreciated :D

    Go to Zellers and get these.

    They're made by JVC.

    I have them and I love 'em. Usually my headphones die within a month because I listen to my music blaring loud but these have lasted since January and they're good as new.

    They're only $20 which I couldn't believe.

    Trust me, I'm the Captain.


    BTW: I'm the kind of guy who would normally return a pair of headphones even if they had the slightest problem. I have no plans on returning these babies.

    Sony.
    Since you're willing to spend enough.

    I've had them for several years now and they're still awesome.

    Not to dwell on the other thread, but you were giving him shit about liking harleys and you were saying how much you hate america, Aren't harleys made in america? I might be totally wrong, but I thought they were.

    ^^^ Was that intended to be for me?

    I'm the one who likes the Harleys man. And I don't hate America, I just tell very offensive jokes that could be taken the wrong way.

    For your price range I would say either Sony headphones, or Skullcandy earbuds.

    skullcandy is ridiculously overpriced.

    Sony...seriously...go for it.

    I don't understand what my knowledgeable interest in motorcycles has to do with my knowledgeable interest in audio.

    There are better buds than Bose - you are just buying their name anymore. Research - go to cnet.com and find what fits you

    That's what I've been doing.

    I've heard amazing things about those Etymotics that Quoth mentioned, but they're hard as hell to get your hands on in Canada, apparently.

    Hmm.. ebay? I got mine (gone through 2 pairs in 5 years) on ebay. Not cheap, but fuck they last a long time and the noise cancelling is near-total, beats out any crappy active cancelling.

    ^Have those and they do completely blow out any other headphones I've used.

    I crank those bad boys too with bass booster EQ on my iPod and they stand up great. I've had them for over a year now

    I agree SkullCandy is way overpriced and, maybe its just me, but they would CONSTANTLY fall out of my fucking ear when I was walking. I tried all the different sizes they give me, then after they finally stopped working in one ear (about 2 months), I got a $5 pair of TDKs and they're great
