I am looking for a new set of earphones and I stumbled into this site (well normally i just buy them off the shelf thus never really look around).
I have read quite a few similar topics around so I decided to maybe start my own since everyone's requirement is different.
Firstly, the $80~100 price could be slightly stretchable(to maybe $120?) if I can really feel good about the earphones.
Next, do I need an amp?? Well I have not figured out that yet so just throwing that question in.
Now my requirements: (saw this from someone else's post and feel its quite suitable)
1. Noise isolation (I know In-Ears are good for this but I guess I don't want to hear the Mrt Jingle)
2. Solid build (hopefully the cable and connections could last well, my last one got abused and spoilt)
3. Sound quality, this I don't know (I'm not sure of what is good for what I normally listen to thou. I normally listen to a fair bit of R&B+pop, some Bossa Nova, some kevin kern.)
Appreciates any comments or recommendations. ^^ thanks! Open to suggestions~
Oh yeah, I am using either my ipod touch 2nd Gen or Blackberry Bold for songs currently.
In Ear Earphones <$80~100
