I'm sick and fucking tired of having shitty skullcandy earphones that break, and sick and tired of shitty apple earphones where the bottoms tear ever few months which leads to one side not working then both not working that cost 35 bucks

i want SOMETHING reliable that wont break. preferably in ear earbuds that would cost under 100 dollars.

I was looking at the beats by dre one and the reviews arent too solid and i was also looking at the zune premium nylon ones.

Ill consider something over 100 as long as it most likely wont break and has a solid warranty or something

and lol the budget was in there the whole time

I just bought Etymotic HF2 Headphones yesterday and they sound amazing, I also have a voucher to go to a place that will make a mould of my ear for a perfect fit.

They come with a 2 year warranty, and a few reviews did say they lost sound in one ear after a while but the sound is probably worth it.

Haha, yeah I'm sure at some point with some of this kit, my ears have been too abused to tell the difference.

I have these earbuds and I would defiantly recommend them. Good sound quality, good noise isolation, and a durable cord. It comes with 3 different silicone tip sizes so if the mediums do not fight then you could either use the small or the large. It may take time to get use to the buds, but other than that, I really can't complain. For $60, you can't go wrong.

Sennheiser cx300-II

The upgraded version is a lot better than the original, since I had problems with the bending part at the base of the cord where you plug it into. Since that is now a harder plastic, the problem has been fixed. I have unusually large ear canals, so at times they fall out of my ears, but with anyone else I doubt this is a problem.

I got mine from ebay for about $40AU including postage, which falls under your budget.
IMO they're pretty dandy, so do consider them.
