Hello, I am wanting to get a clip on type earphone or something similar. I don't want to have a band that goes over my head or behind my neck. I bought some cheaper Sennheiser CX300 clones and I really, really, really, hate the way they feel in my ear. I don't like how you have to jam them in there and then you have to yank them out when someone talks to you and jam them back in. I had PANASONIC RP-HS43k before and I really liked those. I just picked those up at a Wal-Mart. Now I know that I like the clip on style so I thought I would ask here to see what is better for sound quality.
I did a few searches and read that the KOSS KSC-75s are good. Are there any other clip on earphones that I should look into? Also I will probably buy my earphones off ebay so please tell me if they are known to have fakes (like the Sennheiser CX300s).
Also I was wondering if there are earphones that are like the clip on ones but cover your ear more and block out (keep in) sound. I really like the big headphones used for studio recording but I am looking for something I can put in my pocket and use when biking.
If it matters I listen to Heavy Metal.
So to sum it all up:
1. What are some good clip on earphones to look into
2. Are there any clip on style earphones that cover the ear more and block the outside sounds?
My price range is $.01-$40 (CAD)
EDIT: Just did some more searching and read that the KSC-75s are not good for noise isolation. So Are there any clip on earphones that have noise isolation? Main thing I hate is driving in the car with my parents and having them yell at me because I keep turning my music up and they can hear it. I am a metal head, I play guitar and have a 100 watt amp head that goes into a 412 speaker cabinet.... I am not the kind of person that listens to music at low volumes :D So noise isolation is pretty important. Is there such thing as a clip on earphone that has noise isolation?
