Quiet earphones!

[marl]

Hi

i'd like to upgrade my Koss spark plug earphones. I mainly use them when out walking.

However, tried Shure e2c's. They did sound better but i couldn't get a good fit and they kept falling out. Also, quite a bit of noise was audible through them from footfall when walking and when the cable rubbed against clothes.

Currently have a pair of Ultimate ears Metro Fi 2's. They are better sonically than Koss's, have okay fir but the noise from footfall and when the cable rubs against clothes is intolerable!

Can anyone recommend something else to try which won't transmit every soundinto my ears!

That's the downside to IEM, AFAIK, there isnt much out there to solve that - I myself is also looking for such a thing that won't break my bank.

Headphones is the way forward to avoid it from my opinion but I always look like a cyberman when out and abouts with my 205s...

I don't mind something a little bigger, maybe i'll start looking at headphones.
