over ear clip earphone recommendation

Hamster · 13 Mar 2006 at 17:01

Hi,
Looking for some earphones to use whilst jogging and in the gym. All standard earphones tend to fall out whilst jogging.
Bought a pair of philips clip-on earphones from the auction site and sound quality is terrible, no bass whatsoever.
So my budget is £20 and am looking for some ove-ear clip earphones preferably not with wire from clip to earphone as these in my experience ca also fall out. Need good overall sound quality with decent bass delivery.

Thanks

Koss KSC-75. Or KSC-35 (harder to find in the UK).

(I feel like a Koss salesperson lol - but they are simply wonderful at that price range).

Rightfully so

It's not the holy grail of headphones. Heck, it doesn't even classify as entry level audiophile. But it provides great value in terms of sound/£ - if it was measurable

(Since its cheap you don't have to baby it.. But at the same time, it's build is good enough for Koss to offer a lifetime warranty - it's great as a backup even if you have more expensive headphones)
