Thinking about getting these. Want something a bit durable and weatherproof. I'm no audiophile, so exact music quality isn't the absolute priority.

Anyone used them, or have any opinion?

Klipsch stuff is generally good. £50 does sees to be at the outside edge of what is reasonable though.

Cheers Geoff.

Just to clarify - when you say "outside edge of what is reasonable", do you mean £50 is starting to pay more than is reasonable? I notice Amazon shows the RRP is more than £100, but I know that might not be a guide to quality.

I meant that I'd not want to pay more than £50 for a wired pair of earbuds.

Klipsh stuff is generally excellent re. sound quality. I've had some X10s for 18 months and couldn't be more impressed.

Christ, I've got a pair that originally retailed for nearly $300! I paid $200 for them. Proper studio/stage in-ear monitors cost anywhere up to $1000.
And they [i]always[/i] have wires attached.
