power? they are ear buds bro...you plug them in, and they play louder than your ears can handle.

lol, doesnt mean they wont distort at high power. i got the boostaroo in today and tried it with my ipod buds, and it sounds like shit...cause they cant handlethat much power

they get way too loud prior to distorting...I haven't got them high enough to distort because I can' t take it. There is 0 sense in playing any ear bud that loud anyway, as you are sure to go deaf faster than listening to your system. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

ok well i have yet to use a pair of headphone/buds that get too loud b4 they distort. ive never invested alot of money into a good pair, but still, they easily distort before they get loud enough for me, so i just want to make sure i get a good pair that can handle the power

Have you used isolating ear buds? not the shit style that come with the ipod? the stock Ipod ear buds dont get nearly as loud as these do. the Senn's are very sensitive and get alot louder then my Sony's do on the same power.

Look at Shure ear buds. You can pick up some good models on ebay. I have the E2c and I love them. My buddy has the e3c and those are very good too, but go over your budget.

Perhaps your "boostaroo" is a piece of shit.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Be sure to save some room in your budget for a capacitor.

get some Headbanger EarSubs. Google for them as the universal ones are hard to find. got some a while back those **** tiny things have massive amounts of bass. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

the V-moda's bass freq's rock, i searched around for a while and i ended up picking those over some other headphones

isolate sound great, bass is loud and clear for headphones, and around 45$
