It seems to be that everyone's favorite earbuds are the Sony 888s and the
Sennheiser MX500. I have heard the Sony's; they are a bit warm, laid back,
and generally good sounding. I haven't heard the MX500.
Beware of the B&Os A8 (the only earbuds I actually own). They have a very
good design, but that's it. They actually sound like stock earbuds!
If you want a bit more quality, there are canalphones (like the EX-70s that
have been mentioned before). Stay away from Shure's products; they are
copycats (very badly made, I shall say) of the Etymotics, one of the best
headphones/earphones/canalphones in the world. $279 USD for the privilege,
but the sound is beautiful. They are my favorite headphones (yes, even over
the legendary Sennheiser HD-580!). Cord length is 6 feet.
