    I'm sure beats will be coming out with some overpriced compatible solution soon...

    Just spotted you have an 3.5mm adapter, so I'd suggest a pair of Soundmagic E80s, excellent VFM & SQ

    Thanks Will, the soundmagic look interesting

    They come with a wide variety of tips, I found mine sound best with the supplied 'comply' foam tips, they fit and isolate better than the rubber ones...
    Cheers, Will

    +1 for the Soundmagic headphones. Very good VFM. On my second pair only because my first became became tangled in the front wheel of my bicycle.

    At the moment looks like a choice between the Soundmagic or Shennheiser momentum m2 i.e. 1s

    I use the ONKYO earphones, very good indeed. Very good.
    Basically they use a much larger driver than most earphones and the actual bit that goes into your ear is a rubber grommet off the driver at an angle.
    I'm probably not making any sense , but I can't seem to link an Ebay add, I don't know why.
    Very deep and articulate bass for ear phones and everything else is good from there up to the treble
    Hope that helps

    Yes, the Marshall ones are the same.. set at about 45 degrees due to size etc. Surprisingly comfortable and secure though which surprised me as i usually have difficulty keeping buds in.

    Yes that sounds about right. I've got the older version and if there is a fault, it's that they can be a wee bit heavy
