hello everybody... i have a question for you fontopia ex71sl owners.... i do not always use the remote in the gym when i listen to my 'pod... i carry my 'pod in my pants pocket (i can't wear it on my arm- it's annoying). i was just wondering if i use the extenstion (without the remote), does the extra weight on the 'female' part of the extension plug causes a swinging motion and pull on the earphones? i'm reluctant to buy these for that reason, so i might go for the 51lp's.... but i want the white ones!

your help is appreciated.

I clip the ipod onto my workout shorts, and use the extension... simply putting it down the back of my shirt, then tuck the excess into my waistband.. never any problems...

I can't live without my ex71s!

haven't had any problem with the 71's swinging at the gym...

The connection hits my hand while I jog. I prefer the LP instead. There is also a silver metal bob at the ear that swings into your check. go for the lp.

thanks for all the input.... i said ef-it and bought the shure e2c's. nobody really seemed to have any complaints about them... and i got them at guitar center for 80 bux.

i may buy the white sony 71sl's to have a short cord option when i use my remote...... (when the new apple lcd screen remotes come out in april)

danks 'gain.
