Looking for some new earbuds, I lost my klipsch S4 from a while ago sadly. I am hoping some of you are much bigger audiophiles than me.



These will be for studying or sitting around. Not gaming or working out. Listening to music and or youtube/Netflix movies and shows. For this type of viewing I search more for clarity than booming base. If you think I am thinking about it wrong feel free to drop your input.



If you have any suggestions or recommendations let me know. I am barely beginning my search.

i have a pair of these: http://www.etymotic.com/ephp/mc5.html
i find them decent although i use the foam plugs and not the ones that stick into your ear because i don't like things in my ear. they don't come with tradition cups or whatever you call them so if that's an issue i'd stay away from them. pretty good construction though; not as good as my stainless steel ones but they sound better and have a 90 degree jack. don't seem to have been damaged yet either, unlike my sennihiesers, those broke where the cable connects to the jack from being in my pocket.

I've got a pair of Monster Turbines and they have served me good.

Also SteelSeries has earbuds. I have no experience of those but I do have a mouse, keyboard and a headset from SS and they have all been of very good quality.

Found this from SS website. If you happen to be in need of a new keyboard you can get Apex or Apex RAW and get 50€ pair of earbuds for free.

damn too late. I literally just bought a brand new Razer Blackwidow keyboard. Plus I am in North America that looks like a European deal? hehe

Never really liked the looks of most of the Razer stuff tbh. But that's a matter of personal preference anyway.

And yeah. Looks like the Apex bundle was not available in NA.

I actually like the blackwidow. Its toned down compared to their other stuff. The only thing that I cared about was the quality though. I got it for 60 bucks. Normally 100 and it got great reviews and I can see why! Its an awesome gaming keyboard.
