Does anyone have some good suggestions for some in-ear headh phones. My buddy broke my pair of smokin buds a few months back and I've been using awful ipod buds for too long now. I'm looking for mainly canal head phones around $40-70 range.

Anyone tried these? http://www.urbanears.com/category/medis I don't think they are canals but I've heard good things about them. Really as long as the buds don't pump out music for everyone else to hear, I don't care.

Any help would be great. I searched around online but get the normal mixed reviews for everything.

There was a thread on some pair that had these clips and were pretty cheap, and had good reviews. Not sure if you'd be interested but they had decent quality from what people were saying. I'll try to find it (or someone probably will post the link)

the skullcandy Titans have the same specs as the FMJ just instead of a mic they have volume controll and cost way less. super awesome buds in my opinion.

Im not trying to go against your buying of in ears, but I hate them. They are so uncomfortable. Just get skullcandy icons. 20-30 bucks depending on which ones you get and SOO much for comfortable. But if you find in ear more comfortable, then I would say just use normal Ipod/Iphone ones. They are on the higher side of comfortability and sound quality.

Seinheisser (sp?) make really good headphones for a reasonable price. Skullcandy is garbage and will break within a few months.

You obviously didnt read the OP. He said hes been using shitty Ipod Headphones for too long now, he wants something different. And once you use good earbuds and switch to Ipod headphones you realize how shitty they actually are.

They're all great in-ear earphones. They should all be toward the upper end of your pricerange, perhaps even a few dollars out, but it's so worth it.
