Thanks for the recs, but I must confess I have perpetual ringing in my ears, presumably from loud music. Anyway, the point is that my hearing discernment is not that of an audiophile. So I am mainly interested in a cheap set, I think these were Maxell and somewhere around $5 to $8 that stick in the ears. I am pretty sure they will give bottom end as they stick in like as if I were pushing in my others.
Now noise cancelling would be great, expecially when my wife is hollering for me (
), but I think I'll just go on the cheap for now.
Actually, ear buds suck, they always fall out, but these are by Phillips and are specific for left and right ear, but the way I made them to stay in is to glue the two wires together under the chin so that there is slight tension. That keeps them in very well, but at the same time, probably makes it worse for bottom end as it's pulling them sort of outward.
