Looking for replacement for me ipod headphone OEM
My OEM ipod headphone broke, i am look for replacement ones. I dont want to upgrade or downgrade.
I dont mind the original sound quality. I am looking to spend around $15
There are alot of fake ipod headphones, I wonder if they are any good?

get some in ear headphones, you won't go back to the oem apple's.
they aren't very expensive, i got a pair of skull candy's from the states a while back for like $15. they're noise cancelling and sound awesome, almost like having a tiny pair of subs in your ears.

Try the JVC Marshmallows, you can usually pricematch them to ~$20 or so, otherwise in your price range the Altec Lansings look pretty good. As those above have said, go for some good in-ears, it'll cut out the outside noise, and let you actually hear the bassline without making yourself deaf haha. To be honest though, I think ~$50 for headphones would be a sweet spot for most, the sound quality goes up pretty quickly.

I bought these for $30
Panasonic Stereo Earbud Headphones (RPHJE270) - Black : In-Ear/Earbud Headphones - Future Shop
i use them at the gym and running. they are really comfortable and sound awesome compared to the apple earphones.
another good thing is the 1 year warranty where i can have them replaced in store as long as it's not physical damage

+1 . Always the Meelectronics M6 is always my first recommendation for cheap IEMs. It sounds great for the price and is super comfortable -- you can wear this thing to sleep.

I bought a $25 pair of Sony earphones at the Sony Store and they were actually quite decent.

I might buy the M6 again (broke a pair this summer) as a backup. Lately, though, I've taken to wearing full-sized cans around campus and during my commute.
