hi all.
currently i have a 3rd generation  ipod mini and i use to compliment my outdoor activities-jog, cycle etc.
my preference for earphones are the simple non in ear type as those blocks the outside noise from coming into my ear, which is a bad thing is u want to listen to music while cycle (safety purposes).
anyway, the problem is that most earphones, one of the two sides will be 'off/silent'.. i think this is because i tend to wrap the cord around my ipod after use.
can u all recommend me a good earphone set that has good sound quality, doesn't spoil easily, and not too expensive..  oh, please dont tell me abt the in ear type. does go well with my ears..

This is the JVC Bass series I was talking about; heres the link http://www.jvc.eu/xxseries/

Built quality is rugged and tough, sound quality wise I've not burned into it yet, but so far its on the punchy bass side and quite flat on treble.

Having a hard time to find a headset with mic for answering call
My Rig: Samsung Galaxy SII (ICS 4.0) with Poweramp apps
- Type of usage:Music and telephony with smartphone
- File format:Any high quality audio format
- Music genre:Smooth Jazz/Instrumental/Rock
- Budget:<RM1000 or more if it suit to my needs
- Headphone/ earphone type: Headphone with mic
- Other requirements (if any):
1.able to answering/dialing calls without removing the headset
2. Clear all 3 frequency with strong but clean bass
3. Closed type

By the way can Klipsch Mode M40 able to take calls on Android devices like mine? Wish it has hidden mic like Steelseries Siberia. Good sound quality for high and mid range but weak in producing strong and clean bass. Even tried Dr. Dre Studio at Harvey Norman but does not impress me enough, loud but not in details.

Fanny Wang 2000 series nod.gif The inline mic and control will work with Galaxies but not the volume control.

Go to Tong Lee Co., ground floor of Low Yat Plaza and look for Mr Low. Tell him that I sent you to test the Fanny Wang 2000 series. Incidentally, he is using SII as well tongue.gif

Have had a look of Fanny Wang 2000s, try to like it but still cannot due to the design and the sound, probably too funky to me. Will AiAiAi TMA-1 for DJ with mic work with my Samsung SII in taking calls? Do like the design and the simplicity of it, plus it will not look silly on my head.
