Etymotic ER-6i. Nothing else. $75 at Amazon. You will waste any money you spend elsewhere.

The Etymotics are great because they are isolators, so you don't get the wind noise (what lulls you to sleep  ), and you can hear your music FAR better, without having to turn the volume way up.  They have either the flanged attachments, or foam (that work like foam ear plugs). I preferred the foam because the flanged ones were too big for my ear canals and would eventually make me sore after about an hour of continuous use. You can order different sizes if need be (smaller or larger).. but I'm lazy. Well worth the expense, IMO.

I got some noise canceling headphones from Radio Shack that are basically foam earplugs with a hole in the middle.
They work really well and were under 30 bucks.

Right now, when I do listen to music while riding, I use a pair of Koss plugs that were like 15 bucks. They are a lot like a foam ear plug, but have a tube down the middle the music comes through. Actually have decent bass for an earplug. Here's the link for it.
Also, I have the scala rider team set, which is mostly for bluetooth (GPS, cell phone wireless, passenger) that has speakers a lot like the ones that Tigger showed. The teamset comes with two (notice team) sets, one main one and a passenger one. Well the speakers on the passenger one were torn off when I bought it and I hadn't gotten around to replacing it yet. I was looking at their website and its 30 bucks for the regular one and 50 for one that has a mp3 input jack in it that I'll probably end up getting soon. And if I get a phone call, it just mutes the music till its over. |
