    Check these

    Pixmania aren't the cheapest on these.

    The next model up, are cheaper here

    With proper fitting IEMs you wont need to worry about
    noise-canceling as they'll block out all background noise.

    I can't really wear anything like that I spend most of the time putting them back in my ears :mad:

    As they are IEMs it means that they fit snuggly into your ear and also
    the cable is worn 'over the ear' meaning the are less likely to fall out
    than normal earphones/earbuds.

    Check the Shure page here
    for a diagram and wearing guide.

    I bought a pair of Shure E2c's in London cheap as they are now discontinued. Great headphones, albeit a bit weird, you'll find them pretty cheap on ebay now.

    Active noise guard type stuff can be a nuisance on other headphones as you need yet another battery to power them.

    I find the isolation on the hd25s really really good, like wearing a pair of ear muffs.

    If you dont mind leakage then I`d recommend a pair of Sennheiser px100 headphones.

    They are less than half the price and are excellent headphones. A steal at the price.
