Do you have a case? If so, which one? I have the same IEM's (they are amazing!) but am wondering if the case I chose wont allow the terminator to fit into the hole. I know it will fit without a case...thanks!
I got the old beats solo's but going to get the new HD solo's. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Beats+B...61&skuId=9836432&st=Beats_by_Dr_Dre&cp=1&lp=9
Grado SR-80
I'm an audiophile who spends entirely too much on a/v equipment, so believe me when I tell you that most mass-market headphones are... well... crap. Yes, including overpriced Bose products. I like Grado as they are very well priced and offer amazing sound quality. The SR-60 is perfect for the beginner looking for something better and is great at smoothing out the harsh sound from cheap amps found in portable devices--once you hear them you can't go back to anything else and they can be had for around $80. Grados are open air headphones so they're best for home listening.

Same here - but from Etymotic ER4P to TripleFi 10vi (the ones with the inline mic.) Absolutely incredible.
Klipsch s4i. They sound quite good and they're affordable for an engaged college student.
(also have a pair of Koss Portapros on the way)
+1 for Klipsch S4i. Great to have the controls with the headphones. Also was looking at the Portapros I heard they are great headphones for being 25 yrs old.
I use these v moda crossfades with my iPhone and iPad as well as for some video editing and sound editing on my 27" iMac and love love love them great sound and excellent build quality!
Well I'm not a fan of the Apple headphones at all - they seem to just fall apart for no reason!
At the moment I am using a pair of Sennheiser mx300's - cheap and cheerful all the way, in fact I got them for free when I got my Yamaha AV Receiver and Mordaunt Shorts at Richer Sounds. I can't speak more highly about them, they may not produce the best sound I've heard from a set of headphones, not even close tbh but they have held up in an active work environment where I see week-in and week-out people break pair after pair of headphones while at work.
When I do get my iPhone 4 I think I will invest in a good pair of headphones, but the only place I use my iPod is at work so would it really be worth the risk.....??

Beats and Bose are both over priced garbage. The only reason to buy QC15's is if you travel on a plane a lot.
I just bought a pair of Bowers & Wilkins P5's two weeks ago and they are by far the best pair of headphones I have ever heard. I listened to every brand they had in the store and the P5's blew them all out of the water. They are not cheap at $300 but worth every penny if you listen to a lot of music. They are made from stainless steel and Australian sheep leather(which feels like heaven). Also, if the cords or ear parts ever wear out you can just get them replaced easily. The cuffs are magnetically attached and the cord has a jack inside. Plus they match my new phone perfectly with the black and stainless steal band. 
Also have a pair of Custom 3's from Klipsch for my on the go with Comply Foam tips.

Denon Advance In-Ear Headphones
These are the best headphones in my opinion, they are better than beats by dre in-ear garbage.
