My shitty JVC broke over two months ago and I've survived until now
I kinda want music back when I'm out and about, and just wondering what you guys recommend:

- I have arount $50 in futureshop giftcards so I wanna use that so my budget is ~$50
- I want as high quality sound as possible, within that price range
- I don't really like skull candy earphones but I'm open to suggestions


I'm thinking of the Panasonic Earbuds, the white ones that cost around 40? Does anyone have them, if so what do you think of them?

V-Moda Bass Freq. They are 30 bucks and sound better than you would think for the price. Here's a link:

I really like sony's earbuds. They have a $40 pair that i have had for about a year now and sound great. Just check out like best buy's website to find them.

Sennheiser CX-300, CX-400, CX-500. The best sounding earbuds you'll find in that price range, hands down.

I know its not futureshop but this is a sick deal.  Amazing sound quality for only $15 after rebate.  Dont you hate giftcards btw, it would be so much easier if people gave cash.

Yeah that's the ones I'm talking about. Don't buy on eBay because they'll be fakes.

i will advise koss porta pro...they should be about 50$ but i dont know if they have em in future shop...but they got really one of the best sounds that you can get (with sennheisers) plus lifetime warranty...if i broke em right in the shop they will repair em or give me new for few bucks.these earphones really worth it.

no they don't. Sure's cheapest earbuds are $100. I  have the $150 pair and i think they sound great too, but the only thing i don't like about them is that they have barely any bass compared to other earbuds i've tried
