What Headphones Do You Like

I am looking for some headphones to wear to the gym. I do not know anything about headphones other than the in the ear ones I have keep popping out. Which might be a good pair that would withstand sweat, etc.? If you have a pair you are happy with, could you let me know what kind they are? Kinda boring not listening to anything. Thanks.

    Thank you much. Those look like they don't cost much, are comfortable, and will stay in your ears. I think I will give those a try.

    I have these for running:http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDR-AS200-BLK-Active-Headphones/dp/B00BN0N08K/ref=pd_sim_e_4?ie=UTF8&refRID=1R8HRW0B7GKX8CA4YCTX

    The around the ear design keeps them in my ears, they don't pop out like regular earbuds do.

    I buy these $8.00 Panasonic headphones on amazon. They are the best ones I've ever had. They fit really nice in my ear and the sound quality is great. Plus I lose headphones all the time so $8.00 is perfect for me.

    I had Powerbeats by Dre which were nice because they had an ear clip to hold them in place, but the volume button broke after 3 months. I went back to Bose. I wear a headband to keep them in place. The sound on both of those is awesome.

    My last pair of Bose earbuds lasted for 7 years. Well worth the $100.

    I bought bluetooth earbuds from ebay for about 15$. Love them.
    In-line control, wireless, good range and decent sound for the price.
    I don't like to wear expensive earbuds to the gym, and all the wired ones I had so far got cable breakage.

    yurbuds are great... i usually ruin mine with sweat and the only reason I ended up replacing my last pair was because I lost the ear part (but you can buy those online if you want to). I run 20-30 miles a week so I know they don't go anywhere.

    If you get the Yurbuds Ironman Series, I would recommend that you choose the ones that wrap around your ear. They work well for running too. I normally run 50-60+ miles per week and have killed two pair of Bose, one pair of JBLs, and countless other less expensive brands/models.

    Fair warning -- if you sweat heavily or workout for a couple of hours at a time, the inline mic and volume controls are usually the first thing that quit working. I haven't found a pair yet that haven't (including Yurbuds), but they still play music perfectly fine..

    HTH!

    I use the yurbuds for women. I got my first pair at Target but my replacements (dog ate a pair) I found at Marshall's for about $10 less.

    I like the cheap Panasonic ones from Amazon. They come in various colors, and I just paid $8 for a new pair. They fit really well and don't come out even when I'm running. My current pair has lasted for quite a few months....for that price I'm willing to replace them every 6 months.

    If you have a bluetooth-enabled device, get the Arctic P311. I bought mine for around €20. I use them all the time for biking, running, whatever. Sweat is no problem, they stay on the ears very very well, and are comfortable. No cables! Wonderful! Highly recommend!16hddlu24afr.jpg

    I love my apple Ipod headphones that came with my Ipod!! My second choice would be gummies!! I have Sony headphones not buds but after a while of sweating those big clunky things just suck even though the sound quality is fantastic!!

    If you're going for great sound for a price that won't break your budget, Klipsch R6 or R6m earbuds are PERFECT. The difference is the R6m has a microphone, so you can use them as a hands-free option for your phone. Both have immaculate sound as well as great high and low ends.

    Also, if the earbuds keep popping out... You might want to check into the type that have the clip that secures it to the outer part of your ear. I'm a drummer and have that problem too. Once I got a set of in ear headphones (monitors) that secured to the outer part of my ear, then the problem was solved.

    The headphone I use are-Alpatronix EX100 High Performance In-Ear Headphones with Built-in Mic / Tangle-Free Wired Headset Earbuds with 3-Button Volume Control for iPhone 6, 6. I like these headphone becuse the wire stay flat. Also I am hearing mpared and I like the sound level of these headphone, and they work great with my iphone. I find them comfortable to wear. edit for spelling

    What's the range? I have this one and the range is only about 30ft? Free weight area is at the end of the gym and the water fountain is on the other. It's loses the connection 3/4 of the way there

    I really like Jib by Skullcandy. They're about $10 per pair, hold up for about a year and a half, and do well in workouts. They're not the absolute best, but they're decent, and if you lose earbuds every month like I totally don't do (ahem), they're a good buy.
