Hi!
I have decided to get the Sony MDR-EX71 earphones.
However, I don't know what colour to get! They both seem so nice! I want the ones that would look best on the outside, without the ipod. (I have a pink ipod mini, but I don't necessarily want it to "match" (becaues the white one would match))
Just the one that looks best on the outside! I have included a link!

The white ones get the "Galley seal of approval". ;)

I'm not particularly find of these relatively lo-fi phones, but I've retained the black one.

I didn't know that many people thought the white ones were for females. That thread is interesting and has me leaning towards the black ones now, although there seems to be an overwhelming support for the white, they do look nice, but do they seem to stand out too much?

Flip a coin, dont bring your colour selection issues to a message board.

i don't understand how flipping a coin is better than taking a poll.

The white ones look really really good, but i wish i'd got the black ones now because they are less conspicuous and I would've been able to listen to my iPod without everyone knowing that that's what it is i'm listening to. And anyone who says the white ones are camp or for women must be extremely insecure.

I don't really quite understand.
How do the white ones mean you're listening to an ipod? They could be plugged into anything, while the Apple earbuds have a definite style and look to them, these earphones could be bought for any music player.

iPod is extremely popular and probably the only MP3 player people listen to with white earbuds.

white... it matches perfectly with the iPod, and they have that clean look when by itself.
