Sennheiser CX 485 In-Ear Noise Blocking Headphone $20 + Free Shipping (expired)

Quote from BosuxRedsux : can these be used for mowing the lawn?

Probably, but you would have to buy a weedeater or something to spin them around fast enough.

Quote from tate1411 : I know what you mean. I have a a pair of beats pro back when it was $99 , monster gold turbines, and even klipsch s4is, but still trying to find that perfect set for running and gym workouts.

Sounds like you don't mind paying good money for ear buds so I'll thrown a recommendation out there for you. I also have the monster gold turbines - I enjoy the sound but they never stay in my ears when I go on jogs (no matter what size rubber ear bud attachment I use). I recently picked up the Bose IE2 [amazon.com] earbuds and they're the best I've found, particularly for running. They have a special attachment that keep the earbuds in place and are comfortable enough that you don't really notice you have them on.

Quote from e-powersellers : Perfect, wanted something a little better for a long flight to Hawaii coming up. These will work well. My ears thank you!

Lol I would've asked you to bring me a pair because newegg shipping isn't Hawaii-friendly..buuut I have one odd ear where no ear bud will ever stay in. Anyhoo, have fun! Weather is warming up with passing showers here and there.

Quote from erki : Probably, but you would have to buy a weedeater or something to spin them around fast enough.

I had the exact same thought. lol

Quality earbuds at a great price. In for a pair. Thanks.

how are these for gym use?

Got them but did not need them like others. I have a $10 walmart pair that work fine for what I need, movies, games, etc on a tablet. With some luck these will be a good jump in sound quality and I did not waste $20.

Quote from twitchyzero : Do these actually come with a travel pouch? Cause 475 said it did but didn't

I bought the 485s from Newegg at the end of January and the package included the red carrying bag with the headphones.

I'm not an audiophile, but I have been very satisfied with the CX 485s. Also, I have small ears and before buying this pair, I have never been able to comfortably wear in-ear headphones. In the past, even if I was able to get a pair of earphones in (which was rare), they would fall out soon after. That doesn't happen with this pair, so there is some truth to the "designed for smaller ears" marketing.

Thank OP, in for one hoping for the comfort described above.

Does it work with iphone 4?

Quote from goldenage : does it work with iphone 4?

yes....

for small ears, mine are medium. no go for me

Ive always had bad experiences with in ear buds constantly falling out, how do these do? Any recommendations for buds with built in button for skipping tracks?

Thanks OP needed some for yard work and any excuse to use my free shoprunner account is good too.

i love everything of Sennheiser gears!
