OK heeres the script, I wear big meaty technics headphones, there like as big as fuck the other day i was goin to meet my chick at the student union and one of her pals was likev

'WTF is the deal with your hugeheadphones' (i was most annoyed cos hige cans rock)

But anyway i was curious, what does the people on threadless like???

a) Big enormous ear shatteringly large headphones that consumer your face when you wear them...

OR

b) Littel girly rubbish In-Ear efforts that you stick in your lug-holes???

I realise my descriptions are slightly skewed in favour of a, but still, its a questin tht needs answered,

Headphones or Earphones???

^_^

Girly little ones. But then, I have a pair of Schure Ec4s. Those things are amazing, I havent heard big ones that sound NEARLY as good.

I wear giant ones at home when I'm listening to music on my computer, and earbuds at school/walking around when I'm listening to my mp3 player. Earbuds that I need to get replaced since one ear just stopped working.. I want some noise-cancelling ones so I can block out loud people.

The earbuds arent worth anything if they arent noise canceling. The old ipod buds sucked, but the new ones are actually pretty good. (For a stock set)

I think earphones edge out headphones at every price point, especially the Shures and Etymotics. But you have to get a really good seal with them to get any bass.. meaning you won't hear anything in the environment, which can be bad..



There's a $600 pair of Ultimate Ears that requires a trip to the ear doc to get the shape of your ear canal, and they custom make your buds. Intense stuff.

If youre curious about some Schures, go for the "http://macslash.org/article.pl?sid=04/03/10/1216247" Ec2 . 100 bucks, (70ish online). But, if you listen to music with alot of bass, get the Ec3.

I have these shure earphones and I love them. I have the E2C which is the cheapest pair I think, but I only use them for work so they are wonderful.

How do you put images in your posts?? I heard about those ones you get shaped to your ear canal, they sound pretty cool,



Kinda off topic but like for cool audio related stuff look on the web at the Audiopad and ReacTable (links below)



its like this really cool new technology thats kinda like, a totally interactive way to make music, my personal facourite is the Audiopad since it seems to function an awful lot like ableton live, but the synth lover in me really loves the reactable cos its just so cool (theres vids for both products)



(sorry geek attack)



Anyway, the links



Audiopad: http://www.jamespatten.com/audiopad/



ReacTable: http://mtg.upf.edu/reactable/



Hope you enjoy the videos, theyre both really cool inventions ^_^ x
