New earbuds for Christmas

ncstatered21 · 12-23-2009, 10:36 PM

So I thought my fellow Camaro5 members might be able to help me with this. I'm going to be taking the money I get for Xmas and my birthday and put it toward a nice set of earbuds. Was wondering if yall had any suggestions. I have been looking at Bose Triport In-Ear and heard some okay reviews. Also been looking at Sennheiser and Klipsch.

So...any suggestions?

I have the Klipsch X10's I love them wayyy more than the Bose Tri-ports. If you need to follow a more strict budget try the Klipsch S4's they sound just like the triports

Well the S4's are the top earbud within my budget (sub-$100 range). I'm between those and the Bose Tri-Ports.

I would go with the S4's they sound better to me

I've never used the Klipsh but I had some of the Creative Aurvana earbuds and I liked them a lot better than the bose ones as well.

I have used the Bose and liked them. But sounds like it is nothing to compare to Klipsch (looking at the reviews).

I have the bose in ear buds and I do not know if they are the same as the tri-ports you are talking about, but they were nothing special, kind of dissapointed I purchased them.

Yeah their technical name are the Bose Triport In Ear headphones. The ones I'm looking at look like this:

I used them a long time ago and thought they were pretty good. But my ears are use to stock iPod earbuds.

Yep those are the ones I have. The plastic ear pieces rip really easily and the sound was just kinda blahhh from what I expected. The on the ear ones though were fabulous.

Yeah I wouldn't mind getting the over the ear ones. But I heard those didn't hold up too well. I think I'm going to go with the Klipsch S4's.
