Please reccomend earphones...

[Dr.Robotnik]

Hi all, please reccomend headphones or earphones for work.

If at all possible I'd like them to be good fitting and silent to other office users. Bass is a must and I would prefer to steer cleer of those super deep earphones with the rubber plug as they feel weird. I currently have some like this but they have lost the levels on one side.

That's the super deep type though, do they have something similar but in the style I posted first?

I don't know, perhaps comment on how the deep style feel, I found them weird, do you get used to it?

My wife has these which she uses for running which she likes...

I use the first ones I posted up - they're a bit weird to begin with but, persevere and the sound quality and noise cancelling are superb for the price.

Be very careful when buying CX300's from anywhere but an authorised retailer as fakes are rife on Amazon Marketplace and Ebay.
The general concencus is that they are the best budget earphones and you do get used to them and they are believe it or not more comfortable over longer periods IME.

Do they work when wearing a helmet?

Not into wearing a head band, that seems odd too.

I'll do some research elsewhere into the Sennheisers and the fit but am pretty sure I won't like that type.

Just after some normal earphones really...

Where might I find a proper authorised retailer though if there are fakes about?

 

[drcarlos]

Maybe a tenner more but JL wont get caught up with fakes.

What kind of helmet? Surely not a cycling helmet??

I am amazed when I'm out on the bike at the number of runners wearing earphones. I had to shout really loud at this lass to warn her that I was there - but she didn't hear.
Nearly sh*t herself when I then went past - then swore at me - you just can't win!!
