Headphone Dilemma
Okay so my Ipod headphones died several months ago so I went and bought a pair of Phillips headphones to replace them. But I have found that certain brands, Phillips being one of them, don’t fit my ears (I have small ears). So I took the Phillips back and bought a pair of Sony (one of the few that fit my ears) headphones and they worked fine, but only for about a few months and then they too died. I was hesitant to buy the same pair, even though they I knew they fit, because they didn’t last long and I put my headphones to work! I have tried a few brands and different styles (In-ear or noise canceling). Right now I am trying two different styles and brands, Sony MDR-ED21LP (the black ones) and Apple’s Ipod headphones (the white ones).


Sony:
Pros: Seems to have a clearer and better sound, stays in your ear better
Cons: Starts to hurt after wearing them for long periods (which I always have my headphones), if you sleep with them in they push in farther and hurts
Apple Ipod:
Pros: Can have them in all the time, good sound, stays in your ear ok
Cons: On certain songs they can buzz at certain points (And I love LOUD music), has a more muffled sound compared to the Sony’s
So I have no idea which ones to choose or if I should take them back and try something different. If you have any suggestions or have a pair of headphones that you love let me know and I may try those out. ![]()

Wow. I SO need to put a blog entry up with almost exactly what you wrote here! =:) I think I like the KOSS ones, although Mommy totally hates talking to me and me not knowing she’s talking until she throws something at me. And I’m tired of getting things thrown at me. And I know how she feels, because it totally drives me nuts when I talk to you guys and you’re oblivious.
So… yeah… anyway… I SO need a good pair of headphones. From what I’ve read, these are like some of the best headphones anywhere: http://tinyurl.com/5ttz7q, but they’re just a smidge expensive. =:/
Holy Crap!!!! Those headphones are expensive! I think I nearly had a heart attack!
