Default Need headphones.... suggestions?

I need a pair of headphones that meet some certain criteria. Here's the deal. I'm going to West Va. on Friday to do some 4 wheeler riding. Well, we're planning on riding 8-10 hours a day in 1-2 hour sessions, so I'm thinking I want to load my phone up with music so I at least have something to listen to besides the 4 wheelers. So.... need an earbud style that:

-Small enough to be worn under a helmet
-Fairly long cord (I'm 6'2")
-Comfy enough to be worn for a long time.
-Sound decent
-Kinda cheap... just in case I end up breaking them somehow. After all, I'm going riding...

Suggestions?

I like Skull Candy headphones. I had a cheap pair of earbuds that were <$20 and they sounded great. They have rubber or silicone rubber that help to block outside sound and enhance bass at the same time. They lasted me years.

Now I have a nicer pair that were around $60 and they sound even better and have a bamf braided cord. LOL

But check out their cheap ones.

I was thinking Skull Candy. I don't need something that's going to 100% block out the sound of the bikes, cause hell, the sound of 6-8 quads blasting through the woods sounds like music to me. Just something to give myself a little more to listen to as like a background noise sort of thing. I'm one of those guys that listens to the radio in the car just barely loud enough to hear it, just to fill in the silence.

The skullcandy's do a good job at blocking out sound but at the same time, they aren't the foam type that expand to fill your ear like earplugs. And the cheap ones aren't designed to block all sound out or anything.

Anything that doesn't have those little cushions will fall out of your ears anyway.

How cheap are you wanting to spend?

For $20 or so, Meelectronics are a much better deal than Skull Candies. Then again, if you are only spending sub $10 its hard to beat Skull Candies.

Its all about how much you want to spend...

You're looking at some seriously conflicting needs. I think your biggest concern will be how they connect to your ears. If they fall out while you're riding you're not going to ask your buddies to stop while you take off your helmet, take off your gloves for dexterity, and start fooling around with it again. The other option could get painful as they get jammed in the worst possible place between the helmet and your head.

You'll need in-ear-canal ones, but for silicone ones to stay in during that activity you'll need to use an uncomfortably-sized rubber thingy. Even then you'll need to pull up on your ear while you insert, insert with the cord facing up, and wrap the cord around your ear multiple times.


The memory foam ones would be slightly better.


I've never used them, but I bet Acoustibud-style would be best.

I think I've seen another brand that is even more aggressively shaped.

I don't know if these would fit under your helmet, but if they would then they might be the better option.

AFAIK they only ever came with Rio Forge mp3 players. You might still need to add Acoustibuds to keep out some of the engine noise so you can hear the music.

There must be in-helmet two-way radio systems. How are their speakers rigged so you can clearly hear what people are saying? I imagine that buying one just to hook up the mp3 player will be out of your budget.

Those Rio ones remind me!I have a pair of Panisonics that were probably under $20 and they have that black piece that goes over the ear like the Rios AND they are inner-ear with the silicone. So they stay on and sound great. Might be best of both worlds.

I haven't found over-the-ear phones that fit as well as the Rio ones, but then I don't think I've tried any decent ones.

I just can't stand the flat earbuds like those rios or the iphone ones. Most the time they fall out of my ear and when they do manage to stay in, they don't sound nearly as nice as ones with silicone/foam cushions. But if you don't want outside sound drained out they are the best choice I suppose.

I too mostly dislike any that don't go inside the ear canal, although there are times when I do like them - if I've just gotten out of the shower, for example, sticking earbuds in my ear canal hurts.

Anyway, Acoustibuds attach to standard-sized flat earbuds and convert them to in-ear-canal, which is why I think they'd be good with the Rios...but if those Panasonics you have are decent, I may try to acquire some. I've never tried Acoustibuds but they look like they'd stay in better than the other in-ear-canal options even without ear hooks.

Oh one downside (depending on the user) of the panasonics are that they have a fairly short cord. But that may be because the other two pairs I use regularly are crazy long.

Tried to find the Panasonics on google shopping but I don't see them. Maybe they are an old model. But I did see several others that are probably just the newer version of them. They look a little different but probably perform the same.

One could certainly use an extension cable...or put the mp3 player closer, like in a securely closed shirt pocket.

Best money we've ever spent. Use them for racing.

You custom fit them to your ear. Have to mix the stuff, kinda like sillyputty. Then get somebody to help mould it into your ear. Put them in after they've set up, put some duct tape/whatever tape you have on hand over you ear, firesuit mask, then helmet. Can hear perfectly and block out most of the engine noise/noise from the other guys.

Never had one fall out yet from not fitting properly.

Your biggest problem is going to be the cord. I've pulled them out sometimes if I dont have the cord routed properly getting in and out of the car, once im sitting im good though. With riding, and constantly moving I'm not sure how your going to do that.

TL;DR - buy those ones. made of win.

Just so you know,

If you go to slickdeals.net under Tuesday, July 26 there are some "section 8 high performance earbuds" for like like $6 shipped after rebate. Not sure how high performance they are for that price, but worth a shot.

Well I ended up buying some cheap $10 iFrog ones from Wally World since it's getting to be last minute, and I had to make a trip there anyway.

Tried them on under the helmet and they feel fine and sound pretty good. Only issue is taking the damn thing off. They dig in a bit but I think any of them are going to do that.

Honestly this is probably the only time I'll ever use them, if I use them, cause I normally don't ride for hours on end without taking breaks like I will be this weekend. So no sense in going crazy.

They were a gift. No way in hell I would spend that much money on headphones.....well, maybe I would on a set of fischer audio dba-02 iems. Then again, i would research it like none other before dropping the coin.
