iPods :thumbsup:
iPod Earbuds :thumbsdown:

I have never used earphones to listen to my ipod.

Direct connection to subwoofer and component speaker amplifiers in car = Kickass.

I love my iPods but the earbuds are garbage. That's the first thing I do is get rid of them and buy a pair of Sony or Panasonic earbuds (the kind with the soft rubber that go in your ear canal).

Check out the JVC Marshmallows, they're highly recommended over at head-fi.org and, once they're burned in for about 20 hours, they truly are pretty amazing for the price ($20).

i've been trying the marshmallows the past two days. they are excellent for the price ($8 from buy.com after googlecheckout), a lot better than the koss plugs i was using. still burning in, hope the midrange comes out a bit more. better than any sony or panasonic stuff in the under $50 price range.

I went up to Best Buy and got some $180 ear plugs. Kept them a day and returned 'em.

Went to Target and got some $20 ear plugs. They had better sound.

If you love it so much, why don't you marry it?

As far as *stock* earbuds go, the ipod's are pretty damn good. You can clearly buy much better if you spend the dough, but they're not TOTAL crap.

I got these in black from newegg for $80

wish I would have heard about the marshmallows. but the one's above are great. Infinitely better than the standard headphones.

iPods suck. There I said it. *runs from the zealots*

 

[TheGizmo]

ipod + microphone cable + car cd deck with microphone input = happy gizmo

The midrange still hasn't come out much in mine and they've been burned in about 20-25 hours. I'm thinking about doing this mod on mine to see how it sounds. The good thing about these is even if it sounds like crap modded, it's only $8 to buy a new one

I have them. They sound pretty good and are cheaply priced.

i remember the mx500's being decent, but i haven't listened to mine in years so my memory of them is cloudy. i'd recommend the koss ksc-75's if you don't mind the over-the-ear type. one of the best values around.
