actually what i mean is that i i find that philips shp2700 (the old model, not the current black/grey model) is very comfortable (for a headphone) you can wear it for long time when i sleep, some more expensive headphone i can wear it for sometime but then it starts to get uncomfortable, and i have to take it off. some too much clamp, the material gets hot and sweaty etc..

not looking for iem actually as i found them obstrusive, and after wearing them for a while i alwys feel the need to take them off, unlike normal earphone which is usually more comfortable. but for headphone, there are many good quality headphone soundwise but comfort wise i dont have an idea which model is good for me to go and try.

so i just want to find a decent quality audio wise(not necessarily super high quality audiowise, but also not sub par audio) and excellent comfort headphone.

What is the best budget earbuds?

im looking for traditional earbuds. not in ear or canal type. something as good or better than creative ep480.

Hi can you guys recommend

- My Rig: Cube C30, laptop, creative zen and some other
- Type of usage: classical symphony, audiobook, seminar, podcast
- File format: mp3, flac
- Music genre: Classical
- Budget: I don't know, no definite amount yet. around 200, 300 but will consider more if the improvement is high.
- Headphone/ earphone type: closed sealed full circumaural headphone
- Other requirements (if any): I used to have hd280pro, which I don't know where is it now. However at the time of owning that I end up using my philips shp805 more as it is more comfortable than hd280pro.
I am looking for something comfortable for long period, not too hot, no death clamp.
Soundwise high clarity, natural sounding with no exaggerated bass or treble. not colored, not harsh, not fatiguing.
If possible enough airiness and soundstage.

Must not need an amp. I will be using it ampless.
I will be using it at low volume so high clarity at a low volume level and sufficient isolation is necessary.
