I dont think I can see myself spending 100 dollars on headphones. I'll look around for a cheaper price on the E2s though.

Any other good earbuds?

Whats the difference between the Shure e2g's and the Shure e2g gaming's ?

 

[TheBaron929 10+ year member]

actually the e2gs are the gaming ones, there are e2c's and e2g's...and its only styling, the e2c's are grey and not as sleek, the e2g's are black and cooler looking

Well they seem a bit over my price range, but they seem like everything I want and the reviews are pretty good on them. I will probably end up ordering them tonight.

you won't be dissapointed - they come with like 3 or 4 different types of earbuds, including foam, and the normal rubber buds

definitely worth the money

do you like bassy music? heard they didnt have that much bass in them at all, thats why i stayed away from them

dont know how good the in your ear ones will stay while running,should do good though, but not everyone likes the "in ear" headphones because its a suction sort of, takes some getting used to but sound is so much better

i have a set of v-mods bass freq's, some of the best headphones ive used for such a cheap price, about 40$, but they have very nice bass for headphones, i looked around before ordering them and alot of people recommended them so i got them and they are great

Yea I was looking at the v-mods also, but I'm not sure how great they would be for running.

Also about the e2gs, they look so weird, it will definitely take some time getting used to the placement of them.

Everyone hear has made great suggestions for sound quality but not for what you really need them for. The only type of headphones that will stay on my head while I'm working out in your wrap around the back of the ear type. I bought mine for like 10 bucks. No ear buds or any other kind stay in my ears when I crunch my face during heavy lifting. Check em out

the shures have awesome bass for earbuds - so i have no clue who told bamaboy they didn't - they're insane...

the shures definitely have a weird placement in the ear - you have to wrap them around the back of your ear, and they insert from the top (if that makes any sense at all)

and as far as staying in your ear - use the foam buds on the end and you will have no problem - squeeze the foam, insert into your ear and they will take the shape of your ear and never fall out - the rubber buds fall out if you start sweating a great deal - the foams ones are quite reliable

jvc mallows? really you just need some earbuds there are plenty under 50 bucks.

have you ever tried looping the ipod earbud wires around the back of your ear and inserting the ear bud from the top or front of your ear? I do that and they stay in place much better now, but I don't run too much, so maybe you should try that before you blow a lot of money on in-ear headphones.
