I'm a big fan of the noise isolating variety of headphones. I ride the subway to work every morning and they're a great way to block out (most of) the noise of the train and people around me without extra battery attachements or ridiculous head enlarging earmuffs.
One word of warning about the Etymotic ER-6i's though. While their sound quality is fantastic they are extremely delicate. I had to replace them once during their one year warranty period since the extremely thin chord on one ear began to cut out. It happened again six months later after the warranty was over and I decided that $120 a year in headphone costs weren't working. I replaced them with the Shure Er-2c's which have a much thicker chord and a 2 year warranty. Sound quality is comparable and I haven't looked back since. -- mrchrispy ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mrchrispy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4175 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32191 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
