IPOD earphones SUCK!

[Weapon_R]

I just received my IPOD yesterday. The overall packaging, construction, and product work very, very well. I can see why this thing is so popular.

The earphones completely blow however! I've played less than 50 songs on it and they sound distorted and fuzzy. Complete crap for the price you pay! I bought some black Jensen's from Walmart today for $4.00 that BLOW these earphones away.

Any recommendations for a better upgrade? Preferably in white, and under $40

for under 40 bucks u can get the big headphones that have the band going around teh back of ur neck....never seen them in white although.

I'd like to know as well because I need new IPOD earphones.

Seinheisser's are good.

I use the in ear apple earphones that I really like but the Seinheisser's has more bass than my in ear ones.

Also the apple in ear are white.

Seinheissers are good. i don't find that they hurt too much to be a factor choosing them. i find all ear phones that fit into your ear hurt the same sooner or later.

Which headphones are good that come with the product these days anyway? None.
I'm looking for some too for my Archos MP3 player. Sucks they always give ppl shitty headphones and all that.

[GucciBoy]

i have panasonic earphones and sony headphones for sale if anyone is interested.

i think ipods suck in general. You can't even delete songs except in Itunes.. and if you format your HD you can't even copy the songs back. It's fuckin pathetic. I sold mine awhile ago and got a creative.

[Xtrema]

Yeah, can't believe the craze over ipod.

Technically, it's almost the worse MP3 player you can find. Crappy sound, lousy copy protection and bad software, replacing battery is a pain in the ass.

Everyone is fronting like they are with it unbeknowing that they are just sheeps like everyone else.

if you have warrenty for your ipod do they cover your head phones i need new ones also

I have some panasonic ear bud headphones that I got for like 20 bucks, really good sound and I have the silver Sony V300's that are like 75 bucks, really really good sound on those

[soupey]

silver panasonic headphones from radioshack, they're amazing and u pay $30 and get two free replacements over 2 yrs...

[Weapon_R]

Do you have the model # soupey?:

[Team_Mclaren]

those sony earbugs are good, but i think they cost around 50. panasonic ones are good too, for 20 bucks it cant hurt.

[gongSHOW]

There not white but the sony sound cancelling ones I think fontopia or something are pretty sweet (amazing bass0 but there around $50

[Weapon_R]

Model # guys - I can't go searching for a set without knowing more than the manufacturer. Each has at least a few sets out on the market today.

Also, i'd prefer earphones over headphones. Headphones are too bulky to take around in your pocket.

I had the problem of Ipod earphones hurting my ears, not fitting well, sound was ok....Anyhow, I went hardcore and bought Etymotic Research ER-6i's

Sure, they're expensive (I paid $190 off Ebay for mine), but they truly kick ass in terms of sound reproduction, bass, and noise isolation...Etymotic is a huge sound research lab, and they also make hearing aids, so you know they know their shit when it comes to sound reproduction....I just got back from Europe last week, and wore these on the plane, I could hardly hear the rumble, or the dinging for the seat belt alerts....They're comfortable to wear, small, lightweight, come with neoprene packaging, replacement filters, and foam style ear pieces in addition to the silicone ones.....

NOTE: for a slightly cheaper alternative, look for the Etymotic ER-6's instead of the 6i's, they aren't as nice, and they are black, but they are cheaper, you may not even notice a difference in the sound quality (depends on the quality of your MP3's or AAC's)
