its not necessarily for the Roxy brand, its just the pictures were easy to find.


Answer
I find on ear headphones to be the most comfortable of the three styles, but then I have yet to find a pair of ear buds, either style, that really fits well in my ears. The only real problem with on ear headphones is that they tend to be large so they are more difficult to travel with. As for ear buds, I like the in ear kind better as they don't tend to fall out when I move. I have a cheap pair of skull candy ones that fit relatively well, but they aren't really comfortable for a long period of time. As for standard ear buds, they are a really good idea, but they never stay in my ears. I don't know if I just have freakishly small ears or something, but they always fall out, every pair I've ever owned. It really depends on what you find to be the most comfortable, but that is my opinion.

are "in ear" headphones good?




yeeeeeeeee


i have an iphone 3gs and im pretty happy with the stock apple headphones they came with

i saw these in ear versions on the apple store , are they good?

and i have noticed all the good headphones are " in ear" ( the expensive ones)

ive never tried in ear before.

are they confortable? and hve better sound then my stock apple ones?



Answer
Most of these in-ear headphones shocked me with their superb sound quality and put the stock apple headphones to shame.

By fitting the "in ear" headphones correctly it blocks out some of the external noises and even having the volume at half what the stock headphones where gives quality clear sounds and heavy bass.

The only good thing about the normal earbuds is that they expose the ear to the outside and allowing sound waves to propagate away from the ear freely. Making it easiler to still chat with others or still hear the traffic clearly. Due to their inability to provide isolation, they are not capable of delivering the same dynamic range.

The "in ear" headphones can be a safety issue if walking between traffic. Some people can just hear their footsteps in the bass but nothing else.

The "in ear" can also be uncomfortable for some and annoying at first getting use to. They have different sizes and it will take a week or so to become easy to use.

Circumaural headphones (sometimes called full size headphones) have circular or ellipsoid earpads that completely surround the ears. These can provide the same quality at a cheaper price but look unsightly for some in the way of style.

Sennheiser is a good brand to get.
