Default What are the best headphones?

How many of you out there use aftermarket headphones?

How do you feel the quality is beter than the standard headphones that come with your iPod? What other Headphone Accessories would be better than the standard earphones that are issued stock with the device?

Does it make the iTunes downloads sound more crisp?

I really appreciate the info!

The standard ones hurt my ears. I have some from Zagg.com the Zagg Ear Buds and I like them a lot. They have several adjustable ear pieces and also has ipod controls and mic. Ipod control includes forward to next song and volume control. They often have coupons if you sign up for their email and they also have a daily coupon if you follow them on Twitter.

edit: I have had to return these a couple times. They are making them cheaper and cheaper quality. The concept is cool but I can't say I would recommend them anymore.

I think you mean earphones. I bought Apple iPhone 'in ear' earphones and they are fantastic. Like double the volume than the standard earphones you get with the iPhone.

I'm not sure what aftermarket means, but I use these (and I've been using them forever):

Shure E3c. Great buds...total sound isolation. You also get an attachment with a volume slider..which increases even more over the device volume.

I myself have a pair of Sennheiser CX300 Series II's.

Bought em from the Apple Store for about $90.

Best purchase of my life. Also fits in 2nd Gen iPhones.
