1258881 2012-02-13 00:23:00 Can anyone recommend a good set of earbuds?

Well fitting (multiple sized heads)
Ear loop (not necessary but nice)
Inline controls (not necessary but nice)
Noise cancelling
High quality sound, especially bass (no tinnies)
Nothing over $100

1258884 2012-02-13 01:37:00 Can't remember the exact model, but they are designed for the iPhone (and have a lifetime warranty - I'm already on my second replacement after nearly two years). From memory, about $140... Only downside is no inline volume control, but there is a microphone and an on/off button....

1258885 2012-02-13 05:38:00 Not headphones? Makes for a much nicer listening experience I say, and the over ear styles are great for blocking out the world. pine-o-cleen (2955)
1258886 2012-02-13 06:35:00 I got sennheiser mx470. They fine and good value too. Harvey Norman I think or Noel leeming globe (11482)
1258887 2012-02-13 06:57:00 I found the receipt: Sennheiser Model MM50.... johcar (6283)
1258888 2012-02-13 07:12:00 Most headphones are much cheaper if you import them. But just be careful there are a lot of fakes out there so make sure you do your reading first. Alex B (15479)
1258889 2012-02-13 19:43:00 Pine, I don't like headphones, especially while walking and that is the predominant use for these.
Found a nice pair I liked at Computer Lounge.

Will post model and a review of sound etc when I get them.

1258890 2012-02-14 01:57:00 I have cheap white TDK ones from the Craphouse. They were $20. They are ok, they were just to replace my previous ones that died. I've had to cellotape a few bits to cover bare wire, which means the covering is cheap. They sound ok, Not tinny, but not as good as my No-name ones that came with my mp4 player. goodiesguy (15316)
