Recommendations for ear-buds?

What is your budget? I am a big fan of the Klipsch Image S4 series.

Amazon.com: Klipsch Image S4 -II Black In-Ear Headphones: Electronics

 

Oh then the Klipsch ones are right in the middle of that range. You can find them in the states for about $50.

I'll have to check when I get home, but I also have a pair of JVC earbuds. I bought them for $25 from the bestbuy vending machine, as I had forgotten mine on the way to a flight. For $25 they are pretty darn good. I still them was I am jogging in the rain or in the hot tub, so I don't ruin my Klipsch ones.

 

I like the Sennheiser CX300 IIs. Cheap, but sound great imho. Just make sure you buy them from somewhere well known because the market is riddled with fakes (this goes for a lot of headphones)

 

Bass Buds are pretty good, and you can find them cheaply on sites like Groupon. But they're about 80 bucks normally, so worth a look.

 

I made this same thread a couple months back, and this was the exact answer I got:

So I bought them, and they're absolutely amazing (although they broke really quickly, but I tear through headphones - planning on buying a new pair soon because I lost the box so the warranty won't work). They're cheap and really nice.

Right now though, since they're broken, I'm borrowing a pair of Musical Fidelity EB-50s, which are way out of the price range of an average person (borrowing them from an audiophile), but they're gorgeous. The mids are great, the lows thump, the highs ring out, all that nice stuff!

 

Gumy JVC HAF150B Headphones seem really cheap but the sound is great and they last for quite awhile.
Ever since trying them I haven't wanted to use anything else.

 

Right now I'm using Skullcandy 2X's and I love them. Great sound and only 15-20 dollars.

 

I recommend both Seinnheiser or Bose brands

 

Sennheiser makes some good stuff, hard to go wrong with them.

 

For what it's worth, my sister's Apple ones lasted quite a long time. I think she had the third generation ones. I had the second generation ones and they were pretty sturdy as well.

 

All I can say is ...don't buy beats,

Sennheiser,akg,bose,audio technica,pioneer all the way.

I rarely splurge on things like earphones, but a year ago, I caved and got some Marleys. They're Midnight Ravers and badass as shit. They're almost fucking impossible to tangle. They're really quite durable. Before these guys I was going through a pair per week. Sound quality is pretty great, as Marley is a company that plays up with the big boys, but seeing as you're using it for your DS, I doubt that's your biggest priority. Sound is clear and loud though.

I use them for my 3DS from time to time as well, and during the seven odd hours of animal crossing I play with them, they're still comfy for me.

(The ravers are cool, but they've got better ones out now so yeah..)

 

The twenty dollar Sony's are just average. I'm also looking for a new pair.

 

Sol Republics are AMAZING quality. They have earbuds and on ear headphones. They are on the expensive side, but they are well worth it. You can find them at best buy, apple, and on their website;Home - SOL REPUBLIC

 

I've had those exact ones for 2-3 years and am still currently using them. They do have great sound and bass for the price. I've always liked Sony's budget ear buds and is all I've had for the past several years. I've tried JVC and Skullcandy's but always return them and get Sony's, lol.
