Can anyone recommend some solid headphones for under $60? I have a iPod Nano 4G, and I dislike the earbuds quite a lot.

That is the style of headphones I want. I forget what the official term is for that style of them though.

Any recommendations?

Thanks a lot. :)

I don't like the style of headphone you showed on your message because 1) they don't provide noise isolation and 2) they require higher volume settings to get any decent volume out of the headphone, which tends to run down the iPod's battery faster.

I might recommend Apple's new in-ear headphones, not only because you don't need to crank up the volume level to get decent volume out of the headphones but since you own a 4G iPod nano, you can use the controls on the headphones to change tracks and control the volume of the player. :)

He asked what brand to recommend not to recommend another type that he does not like.

OP:
