Cheap Headphones styled like ipod or similar

Hey..

My Ipod headphones aren't working so good, the left headphone is fuzzy sometimes. Firstly is this covered in warranty, could i get them replaced?

I want a pair same style and not costing too much, going Canada on tour in two weeks so need some working headphones!

I was looking at Sennheiser MX 500 White, are these any good?

Well if anyone could reccomend me some, that give decent quality sound and don't cost a fortune! that'd be great

I don't know much about frequencies and whats good but Mx500 does;

Frequency response: 18 – 22,000 Hz

and Creative;

6Hz to 23kHz.

Would you like to enlighten me? lol

You could also consider the new Sennheiser sport range if you don't mind the bright green colour:

The phones are sweat and water resistant.

Ok gonna look into them, found Mx500 for £13 delivered though

Also anyone comment on my question above?

i have both the mx500 and the SENNHEISER
Model CX300S i use the 500's when i want to hear whats going on around me and the cx300s when i want pure audio bliss. the cs ar kinda like shoving the MX's into your brain.

are the MX500 good, i'll be using on flight to Canada, and a lot of time on bus when we move around Canada.

WHat price range are the cx300s?

CX300 are around £30 give or take.

Yickes, I wouldn't use the MX500 or any open phones on a flight to be honest. Too much ambient noise. And while the MX500 is considered one of the best earbuds (non IEM), most people who've tried both would agree that the Koss KSC-series are better sounding. And with a lifetime warranty, you are well covered (and I've yet to break any of my Koss).

Well, i'm at a shortage of money right now, yeah probably aren't the best but, they are good for the money and stuff.

I'll see what i can find the Koss ones and the CX300 for, but 30 lads going on tour i don't think i'm bothered about hearing other things than the music.
