Sound of wind - what ear canal headphones $30 that you would recommend?

When I go out to walk, there is a hill which is usually windy, so I want to buy headphones ear canal to solve the problem of noise from wind...  Sony headphones that I use currently are the kind that sit in the ear but don't go into the ear canal, and the wind noise is terrible.

My requirements are:

1 frequency response flat without course focusing on the bass.

2. comfortable in the ear canal.

3 Symetrical cords for both ears.  I can't stand the asymmetrical cords that put all the weight of the rope on one ear, and loose the cable to the other ear thongs around my face when walking, especially in the wind.

4. no volume control in the rope that just adds weight to my ears.

5. No cords running with extension like the Sony MDR-EX75 has.  The EX75 has a Plug and the plug of the cord to connect the power cord runs in a device, cuff and an extension to plug in a device size or Pocket.  The plug and the socket just adds extra cord weight when it is used with a rocket or my size mp3 player.

Any suggestions?

Thank you

Hi PolloLoco,

I wasn't able to find the Meelec HAVE-M9 on amazon, and since I ordered everything from there, I wanted to buy headphones from amazon also.  I checked head - fi.org by your link and you are right.  It contains a wealth of information on headphones.

For beginners like me, head-fi site has a thread that explains everything you always wanted to know about memo in the ear, also called in-ear monitors (IEM).  I found the EMP of cushions of Air of JVC-HAFX66 through this Web site.  I found also a youtube comment that shows the construction of the HAFX66 and how it seems that inserted in the ear.  Here is the link:

http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=V8PRU6tI3_k

This video shows the FX66 has symmetrical cords.  An important part of the FX66 is actually a soft material that fits into the outer ear.  It is the function of "air cushion".  The air cushion is supposed to also reduce the noise of the rope in the ear that is going to be great because I will mainly use them all by running the exercise.  From the looks of the FX66 in the ear (in the youtube video), it seems the cushions of air could also help block the wind which is one of my major concerns.

The HAFX66 sells for $19.58 on amazon which is quite cheap to take a chance on them.  The reviews on amazon are very good with the smallest number of negative comments (percentage wise) compared to all the other IEMs I checked on amazon.

Thanks a lot for your help.

  • What tablet that you would recommend?

    I normally photo editing and some graphics design work for the web, but yesterday I went to follow a video tutorial on the use of the new mixture brush in Photoshop CS5, and I think I might just be hung on the conduct of a more sophisticated art work...

    PhotoToPainting.jpg

    50 years ago, my mother doesn't have oil painting.  I never quite "got" what she saw in the work with oils until now and of course this modern Photoshop technology makes it a lot less smelly and dirty (and certainly faster)...  I've done the above with my mouse only, in a few hours and now it is clear to me that the pressure and dynamic angle would be useful with this kind of work.

    Then...  I think I need a tablet.

    What model tablet you get results with the?

    We hear about many problems (e.g., with drivers Wacom, etc.) here on the forum, but we hear fewer successes.

    I'm running Windows 7 x 64 Ultimate, Photoshop CS5 Standard and have two monitors.

    Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences.

    -Christmas

    Noel,.

    I was happily using a Wacom for over a decade now. I started with an ArtZ II (series) and have added more over the years. I think my last was an Intuos 3. Everyone loves. I had a driver problem, and Wacom had a new driver according to the tablet that was, before they could respond to my e-mail address, what they did. Some RF interference from monitors to double from 21 "to close, and the next upgrade Intuos took care of this. Again, I have my first Wacom and use quite often.

    I like the large shelves, but real estate office for them. I also 'draw' with my arm and not my fingers, so do not put the tablet in my Tower, I like the large shelves. I have a 4 x 6, and he often don't get used. It's just me, however. Many like the smaller tablets, but more to shoot with their fingers and also as the tablet in their laps.

    Personally, I wouldn't even look at another Tablet, but that's because that appreciate were so very good to me.

    In another thread, someone said that Wacom was a case that Corel Painter included. If there never use painter, it is a great program and is different enough to PS, I keep versions updated on all my machines.

    Good luck

    PS - once you go to a Tablet, you will never, ever go back, so just be prepared.

  • What upgrade that you would recommend for Web design?

    I currently use an LCD monitor from 19 "to 1280 x 1024.  The monitor still works very well and could continue to be used in my configuration.  I'm looking to upgrade my installation of the monitor to expand my real estate when you work with Adobe products.

    My budget is $ 300 or less.  Search on NewEgg, I can get up to a monitor 28 "for $299.99 with free shipping.

    Most of my work is in the design (GoLive, Dreamweaver, Photoshop and Illustrator). Would you recommend I get a single large monitor or add a second 19 "monitor to my installation and make a double screen?

    As you are looking at an online retailer, you should visit a big local computer store surface to see what resolution is right for you. The first impulse is to shop for the biggest you can afford (and can be powered by your video card).

  • Windows Defender and Norton Internet Security? What are the differences, and that I would be better off with NIS.___NIS it has automatic connections which is great.___Thank you. Dennis__

    None

    Windows Defender is an antispyware software.  In itself, it does not all the protection your computer needs.

    Norton Internet Security is a suite of programs, including antivirus, antispyware, firewall, antispam and others.

    Windows 7 consumer security software providers shows those and other opportunities.

    I'm not a fan of security suites.  On my computer, I use the free program of Microsoft Security Essentials antivirus and antispyware protection integrated in Windows 7 is Windows Firewall .

  • my laptop makes a funny crackling sound no matter what I'm listening to or what IM listening through!

    I am running windows vista on an acer aspire 5715z and since I have just more than a year. About six months ago a funny crackling sound began to appear when I was listening to music or watching movies, no matter if I used the headphones, internal or external speakers.

    Since then, I tried several things to solve the problem, including following all the steps that I got from another forum online.
    I also sent acer and asking questions about what they think it might be. They replied, saying: it is very probably the sound card, but it might be the drivers, so I reinstalled audio drivers but that didn't work.
    My last attempt at the question of setting was to buy a new USB card external sound only that has not solved the problem either!
    Can someone help me?

    Thank you

    Arran

    Hello

    No way to know if a computer store can help you or not. Do you have sent Acer support because it could
    be a known issue.

    You are absolutely sure that pilots of its display in the latest Device Manager are after
    audit of Acer and one that makes the unit (if it is possible)?

  • After 3 years of use of this helmet and having no problems with it, now I can hear the sound in the right ear

    Hello, after 3 years of use of this helmet and having no problems with it, now I can hear the sound in the right ear... what should I do? Help, I don't want to say 'goodbye' to it already... Thank you

    It could be the plug on the computer that is the cause of the problem. Try another helmet or a pair of speakers in it.

    If you hear only on one side, who will tell you that is the question.

    If you hear from both sides, you must obtain a new helmet

    Software will fix either of the foregoing...

    Then go to Device Manager and remove the sound card in the list of devices (simply mark it and press DELETE).
    After that restart the laptop, wait for windows would ask the audio driver and then point to the driver files that you downloaded from the Toshiba driver page.
