I have a set of Apple in-ear headphones that are quite good. I sometimes use them under my crash helmet when I'm riding on the motorway and I can hear the music pretty well, or even spoken-word stuff like audiobooks. And even when I don't have the music on, the snug in-ear fit means that they act as ear plugs and drown out a fair bit of wind noise.

Sorry there is nothing specific that will grantee you a loud clear pair of headphones.
Certain makes & models that have good reps for delivering certain types of sound.
What's your buget ? If you're spending over £100 try & listen to a burnt in pair before you buy.
I had these Head-Direct RE0 http://www.head-direct.com/product_detail.php?p=38# not enough bass for me but loud,clear & clean sounding phones,may work for the kind
of music you listen to,great value at about £70.

Why do you want to damage your hearing?
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds will eventually make you deaf, and personal stereos are plenty loud enough to do that

My hearing is great, but I can listen to loud music for hours and still hear a pin drop. I also love music but hate to hear peoples footsteps behind me interfering with the music I listen to.

Agree with the 'Bose sucks' comment. Best I've ever owned are easily ultimate ears. Huge price range of ears. check out website... a lot of artists use these - Howard Stern too.

9.99 Sony MDR-828 s are really the biggest bang for your buck plus they last forever..

At the hacienda I rock Bose, Klipsch, Polk, and a couple of Yamaha Originally Posted by LuvMonkeyGalore

But out on the range, $15 - $20 Sony over the ear buds are fine by me.
