Can OOT help me buy workout earphones?
 
I want to wear them for biking and rollerblading, what is the best kind out there?

fit and comfort more important than sound quality, price not so important.

thanks!

I love the wireless headphones from logitech.

http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/pr.../details/US/EN,CRID=2412,CONTENTID=10679

(you are going to have to cut and paste link. Or just go to www.logitech.com and go from there.)

Very comfortable. Wont fall off etc. No wires to deal with. Excellent charge life. Takes like 1-2 hrs to charge and lasts for a long time. I havent had them die on me yet.

A guy called RJ had a great thread on headphones last week.

I bought the Koss KSC-75 and I think they are excellent. If you want the noise isolating ones the Shure e4c would be good.

If you are rollerblading or cycling outside, the noise isolating ones might block out too much noise and be dangerous.

do a lot of you wear headphones while biking / rollerblading?

i always thought it was unsafe since you can't hear cars / danger approaching, so i don't do it

do you just turn down the volume?

I guess it is a bit unsafe. I do not listen at very high volume though and most of my workout is on a path without cars. I also listen at relatively low volume.
