Love my 80 Gig IPOD Classic but I can't stand those ear buds. They never feel like they are in my ear good and fall out when I lift or do cardio at the gym. There OK for watering the lawn but that's it.

I also have some other inside the ear Sony Headphones with the wraparound frame so it stays on my head good. Sound quality is not good and the damn wires are always getting tangled. Why does that happen?

Anyway, could somebody recommend some good lightweight headphones that have good sound and stay on your head while working out in the $50 price range. I don't read so good so pictures would be great too. Thanky.:cheers:

Amazon.com: Sharper Image Noise-Cancellation Headphones FJ450 - Headphones ( ear-cup ): Electronics@@AMEPARAM@@http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41GaffZ0liL.@@AMEPARAM@@41GaffZ0liL (http://www.amazon.com/Sharper-Image-Noise-Cancellation-Headphones-FJ450/dp/B00190N44O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1315629705&sr=8-1)

I have these. They are noise canceling, and have a bass boost option that uses a AAA battery. They seem to always stay on my head. Amazon seems to have them for less than $20...? The only thing I struggle with is remembering to turn the bass boost off when I take them off, otherwise it drains the battery needlessly.

Ipod classic FTW!

Another vote for Sennheiser here. You pretty much can't go wrong with anything in their range. I was going to suggest these. I have an older, pre noise cancelling, pair and they're light, comfortable and offer great sound.

Are those type of headphones comfortable while working out? I do an hour of heavy lifting and then an hour on the treadmill. I don't want my ears to be filled with puddles of sweat. The inside-the-ear style tends to be more comfortable as long as they are held secure.

Anyone have these Bose ones? They're twice what I wanted to spend at $100. They have these clip-on things that make the ear buds stay in your ear better.

i run a for about an hour a day. as of lately been doing about 90minutes.
i've tried a ton of different headphones and found these to be the best. they stay in place. sweat doesn't cause a problem either. pretty nice quality. chord doesn't really get tangled. usually wear earbuds when laying down in bed watching tele / fiddling on the computer at night.
