    I'm using Griffin Earthumps and apple in ear. Works great for me even when I'm sleeping. Doesn't hurt my ear even for a long time.

    Tried out Bose TriPort OE (on ear) headphones last night -- sound is excellent and very comfortable to wear but quite steep on the price (as all other Bose products). Any alternatives? I was thinking of getting the Sennheiser PX100 but not quite sure on the sound quality.

    i use first gen and second gen ipod earphones, the earphone for creative zen 5GB & for work i use Creative Labs head phone i got from Digital Walker Vira Mall.

    Dati i was using AKG 500 headphones i think, which i think is the best i have ever used.

    I highly recommend Sennheiser CX 300 earphones. Regular mall price is is around P4500. But you can get them from meiroque of TipidPC for only P2300. HTH

    i think you're refering to the triport
    it sounds as good as the single driver shures
    not as detailed as the dual or the triple
    ill still go for the e2c
    if i have the money id go for the triplefi10pro

    and if i really have the money

    the shure e5 series e5c or the e500pth

    and if i really really really have the money, nothing quite beats the ue11 pro

    dreamy

    For a 3-5k budget, i highly suggest the Grado sr60. P 4xxx in Audioden. Excellent for music either via mac or ipod.

    Other good choices would be the Sennheiser HD 497 (not sure if its still in production though) or the Philips HP890 (good value and very comfy)

    Audioden is located in the corner of Quezon Ave and Araneta Ave, beside this BIG crematorium.

    Im not that familiar with the m30, but i DO know that its closed (meaning it leaks less sound and lets less ambient noise in). Thus, it probably has more bass, but the sound separation is more congested (less details).

    If youre more into rock, classic rock, jazz, and guitar-based music in general, Grados are the way to go. If electronica, trance, hiphop, and other bass-heavy stuff is your cup of tea, and you dont want to disturb people around you with the music youre listening to, then maybe the M30 or some other closed headphone lke the AKG k81dj or Sennheiser HD280 is better suited for you.

    I don't know if there's a skullcandy headphones in Manila or any distributor but I saw the product in Urban Zone in Maryland, Baltimore Last Thursday and looks good. It starts from 40 USD.
