I JUST purchased an iPod from Crutchfield (They're having a $100 off the price if you sign up for Audible.com ) and I hear the stock earbuds just aren't that great.
I currently own a pair of Sennheiser HD600s and am VERY pleased with them. But they're a bit big for portability (And a bit expensive, I don't want to lose them/have them stolen).
That said, I'm having a tough time choosing between the 3 headphones I see suggested most.
The Sennheiser PX100s seem to a good pair, and I've got respect for Sennheiser. The PX200s seem a little more hit or miss -- and I just don't care *that* much for sealed headphones. (Although, when I get richer, I may look into some Etymotic ER-4S)
I'm also not huge on Bass, and really do prefer quality over that rattling. So I don't think I really need the Sony's (X71s?).
And that leaves the Sharp MD33s. I can't even find these to purchase anywhere (I usually go through Dealtime.com, because you can find them good and cheap.)
Which would you suggest for quality: Sharp MD33s or the Sennheiser PX100s?
And where would I even begin to look to purchase the Sharp MD33's?
(Price is a bit of consideration, by the way. The iPod drained my funds. If the Sennheiser and Sharps are close in quality, I'll definitely lean towards the Sennheiser's, as they're only $34 on Amazon.)
