In ear headphones for use when excercising - suggestions please

Hi

I'm looking for some in ear headphones that I can use whilst at the gym, running, cycling etc. So, I want some that are going to stay in place through a lot of movement, lightweight and sound good. I have a budget of around £20 - £30.

I've found so far Sennheiser pmx70 sport headphones - which look quite good, however i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.

Thanks

The Sennheiser PMX70 is not a bad choice. It's an ear bud style headphone that stays in place better than the standard iPod headphones. It depends on how good you want them to sound, and also how much you are looking to spend.

We often recommend in ear sound isolating headphones for running and exercising. They stay in place very well as they fit better in the ear than ear buds.

The Shure range of in ear monitors (IEMs) are a good choice... although quite a bit more expensive than the Sennheiser PMX70.
