Head/earphones Recommendations Thread

[TeamStereo]

Hi

I am looking for a durable sports - bluetooth earphone / headphones
phone using is iphone 5

For bluetooth sports use you can consider the Plantronics Backbeat GO 2 and the Jaybird Freedom.

Used to have A-Jays3 but one sided died so looking for new one...
Prefer a not so bass-y one...

Your rig : iphone
What type of usage: music
File format used in your source: mp3
Genre of music you listen to: Pop, Instrumental, soundtrack
Headphone / earphone type: IEM
Budget: max $150

You can consider the Audio Technica CKS77X. If you need a microphone with remote control for your iPhone there's Soul by Ludacris SL49.

Been doing some research and came across the TDK BA200. Any opinions on these? I'm narrowing down my choices to the SE215, TDK BA200 and JVC FXT90.

From personal experience,
SE215, heavy bass, vocals a little laid back sometimes.
BA200, balanced sound.
FXT90, crisp highs, slight punch in bass.
We have the demo units at both outlets if you're free you can drop by and give them a try.

We have eartips from Shure and Westone which can fit the BA200. We also have Comply eartips also.

For the headphones you can consider the Sennheiser HD439 and the Audio Technica ATH-PRO5MK2.

Regarding the earphones, could you clarify what you mean by "In ear without ear bud"?

Are there any ear tips that fit the Sony XBA-2?

We have the silicon tips from Shure and Audio Technica which can fit. But the material is very different from the original Sony one. And also the Comply tips.

For those without eartips they won't be consider as in-ear. Those are consider as ear buds. If you're looking for use with the Note 2, you can consider the Marshall Minor. If you don't mind stretching the price range there is the Bose MIE2.

If you're considering compact type then it would be on-ear type. You can consider the Beyerdynamic DTX501p.
