Earbuds?


Question Posted Thursday October 27 2005, 9:21 pm

I know this has got to be the stupidest question ever, but...

You know ear buds? Like the headphones, but theyre just little things you stick in your ear? Yeah. Well, no matter how hard I try, they do NOT stay in my ear. Can anyone help me?

They don't work for anyone I know (or me). Either they can't get them in, or they get them in and they hurt like crap. I don't know what's up with them...I just stick to standard headphones.

Yeah, I hate earbuds.

I would recommend getting another kind of headphone. Earbuds have a bad quality of music, anyway. If you really want them, you can buy the ones that come with the clips that go around your ear, so they will hook on and not fall out.

Get different headphones then. The audio quality is usually poor with earbuds anyway.

If you really wanted to take the experience of listening to your music to the next level (which I have done, and it is DEFINITELY worth it), then consider some higher quality headphones. Not Bose, those are just a waste of money. Grado SR-60's are probably the best for their price.

If you listen to music a lot, then I would REALLY recommend quality headphones. If you have a CD player, you should be fine, but if you have an mp3 player, you are going to want to get higher quality mp3s. Chances are (assuming you have a portable mp3 player) you have 128 kbps mp3s. You will really want to start getting 192 kbps - 320 kbps mp3s instead. The quality difference is amazing, and really makes listening to your music that much more enjoyable.

I have that same problem. There are these little ear bud plugs that attach to standard ear buds that work really well. They're usually sold with other ipod accesories. They really increase the sound quality as well and tend to be pretty affordable.

Yeah, they NEVER stay in my ears either! I guess my ears are too small? Heh, I don't exactly know. BUT, a lot of people I know say they don't stay in either. I guess they are made for big-eared people? =D Well, Just buy some new headphones; I suggest the kind that go behind your head, I love em! =)

Haha, this is the same with me, I don't get how any one can get the to stay in for any length of time! I recommend just getting a different set of headphones that actually rest on your head, it's way easier that way. :P
