A good pair of headphones for gym use

I've been using JVC HAEBX85Z for quite some time now. The day has come where one side stopped working. The local stores aren't carrying this model anymore and I would like to find something similar. Or if anyone could recommend something to me I wouldn't mind trying something new.


They look like this:

used to just use the cheapest in-ears for the gym but they would break on me too often

so i use one of these bluetooth headsets now




Nokia bh-505s

they dont fall off and are durable and i like the fact that there are no wires


if you wanted something wired

I hear that the Sony MH1/MH1C are fantastic http://www.expansys.ca/sony-ericsson...-black-233247/

I have the same Shures myself and I heard that they break easily when doing physical activity. Something about getting wet from sweat and one side would fail. Just a heads up.

JVC In-Ear Canal Headphones (HA-FX67-W) - White : In-Ear/Earbud Headphones - Future Shop

I bought these yesterday. According to reviews they are very good. Sucks, cause I've already lost the $50 seinhesser ones I bought on boxing day lol. Me and headphones are bad news.

Sony In-Ear Headphones (MDREX10LPL) - Blue : Earbuds & In-Ear Headphones - Best Buy Canada

I use these except they are dark navy blue. They were on sale at one point for 5.99 at best buy. For the price, they deliver excellent sound (a bit harsh on the treble) when I jog as long as you have the Y gap small enough so that you don't hear the lines rubbing. It's adjustable.

Don't have to worry about sweating on them or them stinking, my work out earphones.

Klipsch s4's. I got them on sale at futureshop and darn they are great for the price. They're not an over your ear type like I was used to as well but I've never had a problem with them at the gym and while running.

$170 seems a bit much for headphones for the gym. For the past year I've been using yurbuds with my Iphone headphones for the gym and my runs. Cool thing is is that you can get 2 sets of replacement buds for $10 from Ironman if you ever lose or damage the buds.
