Best Light Wgt. Over the Ear Headset?

[djlen]

I wear hearing aids so ear buds or anything that goes into the ear is out for me. I'm looking for a good pair of 'over the ear' (hangers) that are light weight but nice sounding (not tinny) that I can use walking or biking with my Ipod.
The cheapie ones, even Sony are terribly tinny and high end with no bass at all.
Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

Go to Sennheisers web site and check them out. I own 3 pairs and love em.

Shameless, you are a mind-reader. I bought a pair of Sennheiser PX100's. They were very inexpensive but got great reviews so I gave them a shot and really like them for walking and hanging out. Very light and comfortable with a nice deep sound too them. I'm amazed that they can get all that fullness in such a light headset. Very happy with them.
These are not for sitting at home necessarily, but I like them for the purpose the are meant for.
Thanks for the reply, btw. You were the only one to take the time and it is appreciated.

I picked up a pair of the PX100-IIi with the inline mic/remote for my iPhone. Overall I am happy with them for there open design which lets you hear what's happening around you and makes them idea for cycling or walking around town. They are on the bassy side which I wouldn't mind but for me I would have been happier if they had a little more mids and highs. Even then I would still highly recommend the PX100-IIi.

I haven't heard them, but the PX200s are supposed to be similar sounding but the closed counterpart of the PX100s. A good alternative if you want a little more isolation from outside noises.

Yes, actually mine are the PX100II's as well. The 200's did not get the great reviews that the 100's did. That's why I went with them. Very happy with the product. Will not hesitate to go back to Sennheiser in the future.

Sennheiser all the way, can't think of any specific over the ear models, but it's going to be hard to beat them.

It's been a few months now. I have two pair of them and really, really like them. I still would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who is looking for a headset that is lightweight and perfect for walking, jogging, biking etc.

I have the Sennheiser MM400 and really love them. When I use a product like this that just works I have no problem telling people about them.

Yeah, one of the best things about using the computer is that you can always get honest feedback from 'users' of products that you sometimes don't get from manufacturers. I use the customer reviews of products before buying practically anything these days.

You should try Studio I6 or some others of the same brand!! It will help you a lot!
