Best headphones for sport/ jogging ?

[TonyMM]

Hi! the winter is coming and I will go for jogging often....

Which headphones are the best for jogging/ sports, in terms of sound and in terms of comfort? Sennheiser LX70 or Sennheiser OMX70 or Nike or ????

So meanwhile I have checked the issue and it seems that the Sennheiser OMX 70 Sport are the best available for jogging...

This is something that I am very interested in as well.

Tony, one quick question for you. Is the wiring on the OMX70 is symmetrical?

Recently, a lot of manufacturers have started asymmetrical wiring, which someone [a moron, obviously] feels is an improvement. For those of you who have not seen this, instead of two wires (one from each headphone) meeting in the center, the wiring is from the left headphone only (which is connected to the right by one small wire).

For any type of athletic activity, this is atrocious. The wire, instead of being in the center of your body when it is out of the way, is constantly tangling with your left arm.

Whether you are swinging your arms on a run or pressing a set of dumbbells, it's only a matter of time before it is forcefully ripped from your left ear. Put it behind you, some say. All of a sudden, you lean forward, it comes around your shoulder, and is again ripped out.

This is a perfect example of trying too hard to improve on something that worked fine already.

I have a pair of Sonys--I believe they are EX51s which would be great if they did not have this asinine feature.

I am curious as to if the OMX-70 has this feature. It does not look this way from the picture, but I would like confirmation before I buy them.

Hi! for me it looks symmetrical...I will receive these tomorrow I suppose, then I can tell you.

I know it might be too late for you, but I really like the Senn MX75's. These are the same phones as the OMX70's but with the twist-to-fit system. I love my MX 90 VC's that incorporate the same fit system. Very secure, yet still comfortable.
