hello peoples i am looking for good in ear headphones (in Canada) that will work well in a landscaping enviroment.

i am constantly wearing this type of headset

and i find that out of ear buds will hurt my ear after awhile due to pressure even some of the 40$ in ear ones, so i want to know what people use and find to comfortable fit, but still sounding great.

my price range is about 60$ max, maybe a bit higher if i can get some sort of refund deal a the store :p.
 
I bought the Sennheiser HD280. When I am doing the lawn, I can ride on the mower and still listen to my iphone.

how much? are they in ear? or do they sit on top? do you were ear protectors over top? does it hurt your ear after awhile?

details details details!

funny, why dont you go be useless somewhere else, the guy who originaly posted the brand he used could have posted more information. they are not even earbuds which is what i was looking for (i hate earphones like that, way to bulky)

I have gotten tired of earmuffs and a pair of earbuds underneath. I found these and they work well. but if you want to use the mic feature you need to get headphone adapters like these below.

when your using machinery like weedeaters does it do a good job at noise cancelation?

they work better then the muffs I think. I run my woodshop and no problems at all. once in awhile they slip out of my ears bit but that's more of a problem I have with all in ear thigns. all the earwax :D they are rated at 24db that's plenty.
 
I bought a set of Samsung SBH600 bluetooth headphones off eBay for $90 but I'm still waiting for them to come. After reading reviews, these sound like a very comfortable set of headphones. I'll let you know once they come in the mail.
