March 18, 200719 yr Okay, so, I have taken it to myself to work out, and run*, and I like to listen to my iPod, and whoever has an iPod**, will know how bad those little earbuds are. Everytime you step, they wiggle and fall out***, and I don't like to really be interruted with having to put them back in, because I lose my breathing count and have to start over, and it is just annoying. I've looked at some articles with ways to keep them in, but all they talk about are those US$125 in-ear models, which I don't exactly want because they will probably get sweaty and burn out like the included ones. Does anyone know of a way to get them to stay in, or an alternative type of headphone that is not very expensive?

March 18, 200719 yr Hm.. I never really have a problem with mine. I'd sugest just getting a pair of like $15 headphones that clip onto your ears for running.
March 18, 200719 yr Go to Walmart. Buy a pair of $20 Sony earphones. Done. I don't understand how you made this so complicated. :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 ::
March 18, 200719 yr Author Go to Walmart. Buy a pair of $20 Sony earphones. Done. I don't understand how you made this so complicated. I don't really want the earphones. I am happy with my buds, but am also curious as to how some people do get them to stay in their ears, do some people just have special ears or something? Last.fm Signature Overlays
March 18, 200719 yr There isn't any 'trick' if thats what your asking, some peoples ears just don't like to keep the buds in.

March 18, 200719 yr I have a Zune, but still see the problem. I personally just got an old pair of decent Sony headphones that wrap around the back of the head (I used to listen to the radio while jogging). They stay tightly in place, and the sound quality is still excellent. My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers.

March 18, 200719 yr I know it may seem silly, but what about tape? Simple and cheap :) By The_Jeppoz :wink:
March 18, 200719 yr beat that! Beaten. (is that even a word?) :? But seriously, just get some of those earphones that wrap around your ears.
March 18, 200719 yr speakers as in earphones? or headphones? The new ipod earphones should fit inside better than before since it's skinnier.
March 18, 200719 yr lol carve something out and fit it around your ears! Like forum text games much?um... from... MARS, yes, in the third county from the... left.
March 18, 200719 yr beat that! 100% no worries earphone fused to your head. It'll kill you in the process, though. :XD:
March 18, 200719 yr 100% no worries earphone fused to your head. It'll kill you in the process, though. :XD: If you want to go big you might as well go all the way.
March 18, 200719 yr 100% no worries earphone fused to your head. It'll kill you in the process, though. :XD: If you want to go big you might as well go all the way. Dunk your head in there. A bit of fusion action will stick that earphone in good n' proper. It will turn you completely into alpha particles, though.
March 18, 200719 yr It will turn you completely into alpha particles, though. Tape the alpha particles back together. /circle of life complete.
March 18, 200719 yr [spam]Best topic ever![/spam] Ya i would say the wrap around headphones, or the clip on ones. Earbuds just suck, and i hear they are bad for your hears as well (Just what i hear) Sig by IkuraiYour Guide to Posting! Behave or I will send my Moose mounted Beaver launchers at you!
March 18, 200719 yr I suggest... http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/p ... phones.htm Would cost approx. $30 to ship to US, lol, and thats a 8-12 day delivery. I know. It was more of an example.
March 18, 200719 yr It will turn you completely into alpha particles, though. Tape the alpha particles back together. /circle of life complete. Roffle. K, deal. Immerse yourself in a star and then tape yourself and your newly fused earphone/ear combo back together. :lol: :P Sorry to the topic starter for the total spam by the way.
March 18, 200719 yr Buy some proper ones, the iPod earbuds are cheap and nasty anyway, the sound qualities poor. Your ears will appreciate you running along to the even louder bass beats of Dizzy Tissue, or whatever you crazy kids listen to these days. "Da mihi castitatem et continentam, sed noli modo"
March 18, 200719 yr I suggest... http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/p ... phones.htm yes i have these and they're excellent very comfortable and no dent at all in your pocket \ My pet Boxing Tater
