JVC HA FX66-A

$24.00 Est. at Amazon

from Seng from Oakland, www.circuitcity.com
but over all, this dam thing stays in my ear and doesn't come off when i am running...i love it.
from Ray from Corpus Christi, TX, www.circuitcity.com
they also worked great for other activities because they really stay in your ear, even in running (but they sometimes slipped out duringsprinting).
from Guy from Indiana, www.circuitcity.com
they block out so well that i don't wear them to the gym - friends can sneak up on you!in all, a very good value, esp.
from Batman from BandForce, The Underground, www.circuitcity.com
you can wear these for hours reading, running, or even riding fourwheelers without discomfort.
from music from oreg, www.circuitcity.com

Philips SHS5200 Reflective Neckband

$20.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it has a nice reflective band, and a nylon wire attached to main wire near the ear for a support when running.
from www.amazon.com
had with them, which is more of a minor annoyance than an actual problem, is that the cord is so long that i sometimes get it caught on things like doorknobs or other objects when i'm walking around.
from www.amazon.com
i use them for running (mainly outside) and i am glad they don't block 100% of the outside noisy.
from www.amazon.com
(though i don't use them for jogging, they have an understated reflective material on the neckband as well.
from www.amazon.com
i have a pair i keep at work, and another for working out or yardwork.

from www.amazon.com
for the gym, i still use my sports headphones that wrap around my head (and hurt my ears!), but now at home i use these phones over my larger sennheiser's (i find it easier to lay down with these
from www.amazon.com
nothing is more annoying than when you get that perfect seal and then some joker walks up and starts talking to you.
from www.amazon.com
i wouldn't want to wear these walking around on the street or in public, i'd prefer the images or some less isolating headphones.
from www.amazon.com
the only downfall i can think of is, while walking, the cord will get pulled down and slightly pull them out of your ears, which will slightly decrease the amount of bass.
from www.amazon.com
i was walking through the oakland airport and spotted these in an electronics kiosk.

$38.00 Est. at Amazon

from A Customer from Los Angeles, CA, clickfrom.buy.com
not bad for the price and it does reduce the noise around you...i used it at work and gym...but it needs a little more bass.
from ddss from Chicago, IL, clickfrom.buy.com
very good for isolating oneself from distractions and, therefore, no good for use while walking or jogging.
from A Customer from Chattanooga, TN, clickfrom.buy.com
they did well on the airplane and at the gym.
from A Customer from New York, NY, clickfrom.buy.com
good, clear sound, good bass and they will not fall out of your ears when you jog.

Audio-Technica ATH-A700 Consumer

$170.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
on top of that, i haven't yet connected these to my receiver; i've only used a sony walkman cd player & a creative zen with a fiio e-5 headphone amp.
from strend, www.newegg.com
you won't see me walking around public with these on.
from www.amazon.com
although they're a bit big on the head (probably wouldn't want to walk around in public with them on) they have a very nice (and different) design.
from www.amazon.com
if you think the $15 headphones you bought as an upgrade to the freebies that came with your walkman/ipod sound good, prepare to be absolutely blown away.
from www.amazon.com
the ear cups are about the size of my palm, which is why the are so comfortable, but you aren't wearing these thing to the gym or packing them on a flight.

from JCR, www.newegg.com
either the sound was subpar, the buds didn't fit well (often would fall out while i was working out), or the quality was cheap (the earphone wires degraded).

i use them at work, when my boss walks over to my cube i see his mouth moving but hear nothing.
from www.amazon.com

i use these in the gym -no issues, jogging or lifting -they stay put (mid-size gels).my reference in sound quality would be comparable to my koss (original) 'the plug' soft-foam ear-buds.

from www.amazon.com
as a side note, i have worn these while working out (running, stair master, etc.) and although you can hear the cord hitting your chest, it's not an unbearable sound.
