Great workout headphones if they fit correctly...

The Bottom Line: Great sports earphones if they fit correctly
I was searching for the perfect workout headphones/earphones. I have a smaller head and ears and the earphones that come with the iPod fall out of my ears, especially when they get sweaty.
I read the epinions review on these headphones and decided to give them a go.
I like the separate earpieces - they are more comfortable than the Sennheiser PMX 70 headphones with neckband, but they don't fit my ears that well and slide off fairly easily. Even with the adjustable stem all the way down, they fall off my mini ears :( The sound is great. I like being able to hear some ambient noise for safety's sake, which is why I haven't tried any in-ear earphones.
I like the color (matches the green iPod Nano well) and the fact that they are durable, sweat proof and have a longer cord with an attached clip. The sound is great! I can run in these fine if I get the situated just right. Forget aerobics or anything that would require jostling around or turning my head upside down.
I'll have to stick with the PMX70s. I'm sure my husband will be thrilled with these since he lifts weights and the neckband on the PMX70s can get in the way when you lie down on the weight lifting bench or the reclining Nautilus machines. So I get the PMXs and he gets the OMXs :) One happy Sennheiser family :)
