Your_Friend!,

If you are referring_to

The cheesy earplugs which come

With an iPod, they are not

User_friendly and you should

Buy SONY earplugs. I did_twice.

Regards,
M.Sommers

Sennheiser CX300

I like'm and they didn't break the bank. I thought earbuds had no bass whatsoever and these sound much better. Here's a link to Sennheiser's description.

Not certain about wind noise at bike speed but it blocks out the other people and conductor's announcements on the Metro very well. I haven't noticed any wind noise when I'm walking around. One thing I just thought of... if the cord gets smacked hard enough, you'll hear it in the pods.

My brother worked in a stereo store in high school and brought home some Sennheiser head phones there were great. These were the big disco style phones, not the ear buds.

How much do the Sony cost?

The word "earbud" makes me giggle.

There is a small piece of plastic on the chord. This is a slider. Put the ear pieces into your ear and slide the plastic up to near your skin...this will keep the earpieces snugged lightly against the bottom of your ears.

Ultimate Ear makes a set of ear buds that are very bass heavy.

Good luck,
