Headphones required!

For an iPod, something not in-ear but still portable, sub £30 with decent sound quality. How's that for a challenge!

What's wrong with in ear? Was going to recommend these as they have amazing sound quality and are mega cheap but your rule ruined everything.

They're for my dad, and he has, um, dodgy ears. In-ear are a definite no.

That do you?

Thanks fella. I went with the 200's instead as they were only a few quid more at Amazon. Nice one.

It might be a bit late but the PX100s are better than the PX200s. The 200s have sound isolation which helps block out outside noise but this compromises on sound quality.

Overall the PX100 are a better a choice IMO.

I thought the 200's would be better seeing as they're a later model. Bugger, they're on their way now. Maybe I'll try for an exchange.

The 200s are still good headphones.

I'm sure your Dad will be more than happy with them.

Ah fair do's. He's pretty old anyway, his hearing probably isn't what it used to be. :wink:

I just feel pretty silly for paying three quid more for an inferior set.
