Got a pair of ER-6i earbuds

[notcrazy]

I'd looked at them before, but after seeing some recommendations here I finally pulled the trigger. For the first time I was able to ride and hear music with the volume at a level that doesn't make me worry about hearing loss. They block out the road noise about as well as a good set of ear plugs. No bass to speak of, but between the wind noise and my exhaust, nothing short of an in-helmet subwoofer is going to solve that problem. They have a low profile once they're in, so they stayed in place as I put my helmet on.

Those are the ones that I use. Nothing else fit comfortably in the hear with the helmet on.

Great album!

I have the set that has the push to talk for the iPhone. I have it set to turn iTunes on and off, and have even answered a call before. Be careful with the wires they are very delicate.

Etymotic are an awesome company. Enjoy the tunes, and the lack of background noise!

Nice, I went the cheap route and bought skull candy buds. Place them in the ears and loop them behind the ear and over the top. They will hold while slipping the lid on.

No bass to speak of

Push them in farther

I had them jammed in far enough that it got uncomfortable - I need to put the bigger triple-flange thingys on them.

I went with the Bose. Most comfortable fit in the world + bass. It sucks a little when taking the helmet off I guess, but is so worth it to me

I hated the $150 price tag, and had to twist my own arm to buy them, but I knew from reviews & past experience with Bose that they would be the best, and now I'm really glad I bought them.

Skull Candy's are great... If you find them slipping off, just stick on the smallest ear plunger thing on both sides. They're usually around $20.00 and have really decent sound coming out.

These are by far the the best i have heard and used. But price is a killer. Once you hear them you forget about price. Shure SE530

I have problems with my Bose falling out of my ears either while putting on my helmet or after. In anycase they don't block out road noise or engine noise very well.

You got it!!

Agree'd picked up a set with the mic for my droid and I love it. Deft not a motorcycle able comm system by any means but sitting on the side of the road with my helmet on I can call. Also for anyone that is going that route check into the ones with the 11mm driver the mid / low range is impressive!

I have 2 sets, nothing else is the same.

This is what I use but the previous generation. $949 in Australia but worth it for many hours of daily use at work and play. Has a subwoofer, tweeter and crossover all in the little buds...

I have some Big Ears, they weren't cheap but they work great and fit flush with the outside of me ears.

I would love a set that had more bass responce though.
