You gotta keep in mind how much they'll stick out of your ears . Too far , and the helmet will either yank them right out as you put them on , or they'll be pushed into your ears , which is NO fun .The Koss ones have 2 designs I've seen , actually . The ones with the boxy ends stick out too far , and SUCK (sound is crappier too for some reason ) . THe roundy ones fit GREAT . The pic of the Bose ones look like they MAY stick out a bit .... Sure they'd sound TERRIFIC , though . Hell , for $100 , they BETTER .

Oh, and from your recommendation, I bought a set, and you are absolutely right!

I got sick of using cheap ones, and being let down with the results. so I said what the hell, and splurged, figuring there was a reason they were more expensive, and if they sucked, i could always take them back. Money well spent.Last edited by Dan Dubeau; 12-31-2007, 02:08 AM.

After searching the forums for headphones, I found MD86's post about the Koss Plug headphones...omg. Even if they were the same price as those $100+ noise canceling earbuds, they'd give them a run for their money. At $10, I'd rather get 10 pairs of these vs. 1 pair of 100+ headphones. They block out so much noise, its unbelievable. Thanks MD86!"War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen, and I say let us give them

Definately take Matt's advice!!! I have. My wife has the Bose earbuds. Yes, there is a little bit of diffrence, not $85.00 worth though. The Bose definately stick out too far to put a helmet on. Believe me, I tried cause I wanted a pair, BUT, not any longer. I'll take the $15.00 blue light special, please!Life's not always beautiful, but it's a beautiful ride!! 94 Katana 600/750 and 99 Harley Electra-Glide

I just got a pair of MEElectronics M9 noise isolating ear buds from buy.com.
They come in a nifty little holder and work great. I usually ride with ear plugs (soft foam disposable) and these work just as well at blocking out wind noise. I can also listen to my music at "normal" levels that I'd use in the house or at work. The sound quality is also pretty darn good. I would say probably more bass than "normal" but still a very full sound.
They fit under my HJC lid just fine.

Gravediggin apologies, but if anyone is still interested i picked up these Noise Hush Nx80 earbuds a while back just for my long lonesome rides into the desert and they are freakin awesome! I compared them to the beats by dre earbuds that come with my buddies htc pone and they are pretty much the same. A noticable low end and a crisp mid and they fit snug....
