Earbuds

I can't take it. The factory earphones are just too short. I drop the Karma into the pocket of my workout pants and the earbuds yank right out of my ears. We need a case, STAT!!

In the meantime, Im going to have to replace these headphones, which is a shame because they sound much better than the POS that comes with the iPod. Has anyone replaced the factory earbuds that come with the Karma and if so, with what? I'd like to get some feedback before I run out and buy something.

Im using the sony mdr-ex71 fontopia things. They sound much better and the cord is pretty long.

I Got some of these link I'm not too concerned about the sound quality I mostly use the karma walking anyway. I like them because the cord is long and they don't fall out of my ears due to the clips.

those dont hurt your ears? I bought some of those as well but stopped using them because they were uncomfortable.

Those are designed like my Sony handsfree setup... I don't see how wearing them for an extended period of time can be much fun.

I'll just chime in with another recommendation of those little fontopia thingies with the rubber gaskets that seal into your ears. Best bass response of any earbud I've ever tried.

No they don't bother me at all weird.

Can you hear outside noises with those ?

Very little. They muffle sound pretty well.

Yes, agreed. That is a disadvantage in some situations, an advantage in others.

That's a problem for me because I mostly use the karma walking around and I like to be able to hear what is going on.

Too short for Gary Coleman. Wow.
