Up until now, I've been buying Skullcandy earphones, but I've gone through like 3 pairs (luckily they had warranties) because they're extremely poorly made. I've also worn out 1 other pair from some no name company.

My point is, I can't seem to find any earphones that last, and it's annoying as hell. I even take good care of mine and this still happens.

What should I buy to listen to music?



P.S. No headphones. I don't like them and they're all overpriced.

warranty on skull candies ? im sure anything bose or senneiser would be good... you can get skull candy ear buds for 6-12 bucks at marshalls , ross, and tj maxx if you have any of them near you

Umm if your expensive beats? I hear they work good the earbuds atleast. I am using just cheap old Best Buy gummies and they are perfect for me!

Yeah get headphones that have rubber coating so the wires won't get pinched. Otherwise, if you're going through them that fast, headphones would be a good investment.

Earphones are shit, if you want quality then buy headphones if not enjoy products that sound like shit and last 2 months.

Beats are dudu. Some excellent budget headphones would be Sennheisers that can be found at any local Best Buy.

beats are bad and skullcandy are horrendous.

sony is just OK, but there's definitely planned obsalescence on those too.

bose is marginally better but has no sound isolation on their earbuds, basically they can't be used in crowded places

sennheuser, klipsch, or brainwav's would be something worth your money especially for earbuds
