What kind of headphones should I get for reading on buses and with people talking around me?

I need headphones that will block out outside noise like people talking, bus noise, TVs etc... Would noise-cancelling headphones or in-ear buds work best? How would they compare to just plain old ear-plugs? I have a decent sony pair of in-ear buds and ear plugs already, but not sure if noise-cancelling phones would work better

Answer
I would suggest Beats Studio by Dr. Dre - Hi-Def Noise-Canceling Over-Ear Headphones

I have used this product and it performs really well

How to repair headphones when one side is weaker than the other?

Jake

My headphones fell down and now one side is weaker than the other. Any way to repair them?

Answer
Sadly it sounds like one of 2 things. You either destroyed the connection between he driver and the wire or the driver it self is damaged. It sounds like it may be time for a new pair as repairing them could cost you just as much as a new set. sorry for the loss! If you are comfortable opening them up to see if its a loose connection you can take a look at how to fix them here:

I am looking for the perfect-fit earphones that go with my iPhone for my daily jogging activities. Most of earphones come loose while jogging and I need my headband to support them.

Any good ones out there?

Answer
Someone else asked a similar question recently. My response was to look at a site like amazon with the words headphone and jogging. This is what I came up with.

What are some headphones that wont fall out when im running?

Daniel

I have some regular headphones but when I go jogging they fall out, is there any that wont. And I dont really want the kind that wrap around your ear, thanks for answering

Answer
Have you tried the speaker buds ... the little speakers that fit inside your ear canal? The ones that Apple supplies aren't very good. I use a pair of Sony MDR EX71s for running, hiking and mountain biking, and have never had a problem with them falling out. Unlike the Apple buds, the Sony's fit tight enough to block the wind noise on a fast decent. And they're much more durable. I went though a couple pairs of the Apple buds in a hurry.
