Just wondering if anyone can recommend some headphones around £50 - £70

Dont like these Dr dre ones - blooming awful

    I rate Denon in ears for price versus quality.

    They are my favourite in that price range.

    Sennheiser.

    I use these, both on (don't tell anyone !!) and off the bike. Sound is great and they can't fall out.

    another vote for Shure - SE215's are the latest incarnation at that level and can be had on Amazon for around £80

    These are the same as the Shure headphones, but they'll only play folk music :wink:

    Not in your budget (they're only about a fiver) but since I killed my shures I'm using an old pair of loss spark plugs and they're fantastic. They look a bit shit but after a bit of a burn in they're really warm sounding and not overly bassy.

    Easier to put in and more comfortable than shure too, noise isolation is good enough.

    I have been using these for about two years for running, on the bike and the gym and they seem indestructible with good sound quality!

    Another +1 for Shure, still using my old E2C in-ear's which are about 8 years old & still going strong.

    Bit off of your price but i bought a pair of the JVC gummies as a cheap pair when mine broke in Afghan. I use them when riding off road trails or out on the road bike and they seem pretty bomb proof with good sound quality.

    Also i'm very impressed this hasn't turned into a 'Your a menace, danger and peado for listening to music on the bike' thread?!
