Etymotic Research, Inc. - High-fidelity Earphones and Hearing Instrumentation

they also have a pair that is noise-canceling and they work great for a cheaper price. i actually broke my er-4's a while back and was waiting for them to get repaired. i picked up a pair of shures for around a 100 bucks and they are also great. here is a link to there web site.

Shure - Earphones

here is a link to a great website that gives info on earphones and may help you in your search to what you are looking for.

HeadRoom - Right Between Your Ears

oh, and by the way if you think i-pod earphones are good then your in for a real treat if you buy one of these type of noise-canceling earphones. i-buds are basicaly garbage. i hope this helps and thanks for the post.
Thanks, Shadman. I'll check all of these out. Meanwhile I've been having a great afternoon listening to Michel Legrand/Stephane Grappelli and now Jessye Norman/Michel Legrand with these new headphones.
