In ear phones for small ears!

I have quite small ear openings, the bog standard in ear phones are to big to stay in my ears. I want a pair of in ear ones, does anyone know which would be the best fit for my ears, as it is difficult to try any.

I don't want to spend silly money, up to £50, or a bit more if it would make a big difference in sound quality.

Thanks

Re: In ear phones for small ears!

Most "in ear" headphones come with 3 different size adapters for the headphones. Like these Sennheisers:

Sennheiser U.K Ltd - CX 300-II Precision Black

That should allow them to fit all ear sizes.... plus the sound quality is better than bog standard headphones.

Re: In ear phones for small ears!

My ears too are very small, with pretty tight canals. I find that creative aurvana in-earphones are ideal for me, and may suit yourself.
