The JVC cost $20 and have virtually no bass...very little improvement over the stock Ipod phones. Go with the V-moda bass freq's I linked 2 posts above. They range from $32-37 from Amazon with free shipping and no tax to most states. Trust me man....They blow away every other earbud on the market, and easily hold their own against the jumbo Bose/Sony headphones when it comes to solid bass.

I don't know how this company does it, but the treble on these buds is awesome, and the bass puts my $80 Sony headphones to SHAME!

Although I have read about some problems with the cable casing causing the cable yo break form the ear buds.

A very good under $30 ear bud are the Sennheiser MX500's with Radio Shack pads.

Yes, because you can get $20 that sound better than $150 headphones.

I am also looking for a pair of headphone/earbud but prefer to have BT A2DP capability to go with my cell phone. I will be using it mainly during exercise (running, b'ball)...any suggestion?
