I've got two sets of headphones that I use equally and are pretty great. I have a cheap pair of earbuds that I use specifically for the gym that work fine, and I bought a pair of Sony-MDR-V6 cans (http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDR-V6-Monitor-Headphones-Voice/dp/B00001WRSJ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322698777&sr=8-1) that I use on roadtrips or anywhere else where I only want to hear my music in a loud environment. The cans sound way better than the buds, but both serve their intended purpose. I've had the cans for about 4 months now and I'm definitely satisfied with them, for 60 bucks they were definitely worth it.

Any thoughts on Over the ear HP's for under $150?

Over the ear? Like behind the head or over the head? Or over the ear like.. Not ear buds?

I really wish I had the money to afford...

I've got two sets... my normal ones are the crappy ear buds that come with random mp3s players and they're actually pretty good (and disposable).

for loud environments (like uninsulated aircraft) I use my davis clarks... you can still hear people talking directly to you when the music is off, but outside that... silence. also free... well, except for the four year committment ;).

Bose is really overpriced and not worth it.

Everything Bose sells is over price. Nice stuff but over priced.

Regular ear buds fall out on me when im running or moving a lot, these have clips that make it completely worry free. I also personally think ear buds can be bad for your hearing (just my opinion) so i usually wear these a little loose, which you cant do with regular ear buds. I also think these are much more comfortable than just plain ear buds you see all the kids wearing.

The cord is also extra long which is something else very important to me when i work out. I prefer to hold my phone/music player in my hand when running and drop it in my pocket when im walking, warming up, doing pushups, stretching, riding a bike, mowing the grass or whatever else. I wear my shirt over the cord so it isnt flying around everywhere. I have an arm band but once I put my phone in it I cant really check my pace, time myself accurately when running or change/skip a song on my playlist or pandora station without slowing down. Plus once im cooling down or taking a break I can easily start play around w my phone without having to remove it from my armband. Basically I have an armband I don’t use if anyone wants it.

I think these sound pretty good, but not great. I dont think ive have ever used a ear bud with great sound though. These sound as good or better then the any other ear bud ive used. The only time i personally want good sound is when im taking a break or half assing it. When im working hard i just need something to keep me going.

Good timing on this thread. I dusted off my drums and I'm starting to play them so I need a good set of headphones so I don't have to blast the music. I know my neighbors will be happy that I stop blasting the music but I cannot do anything about the bad drumming (not sure if drumming is even a word)..
