[kj] OT: Earphones

[Mike Cooper]

I am forever breaking earphones through over use and finally went for some
over ear ones – took my lad to the Gadget Show so got to try loads out first
and bought some by Breo – change from £30, great quality sound – superb and
still going strong 15 months on.  Put some strong tape around the plug as
that at least reduces the stress on the join.

The thing with in-ears is the all-purpose convenience, although I do
daydream of having a top pair of over-ear real headphones as well.  But I
imagine you have to spend much more for decent over-ears than decent
in-ears.  And I'm on a budget now I'm back on the dole (thanks to the
Tories)...

Just get some 'closed' real headphones :)

Seeing as you are all music connoisseurs, advice for my next pair of
earphones is requested.

My latest in a long line of earphones have just broken (at the jack plug,
sound in the left ear was going and has now gone) and I am completely lost
without them.

I had Klipsch Image S4s - they sounded great, if a little buzzy on low
frequencies.  I like the in-ear buds because they block external noise
really well and no-one else has to suffer (or complain about) my choice of
choons.

I seem to be replacing earphones every 15 months or so, which is a complete
pisser.  But they do get heavy use.

Thanks,
Janean
