Ear bud headphone things, any recommendations?

[Blobber]

Ive started to do a lot off stuff with ear protectors on and want a comfy set of the weeny ear bud things for my Huwaweeee phone so I can listen to music, anyone had good results with any?
Not sure if I want cordless or wired yet

Skip a step. By Bluetooth ear defender's.

I had some isotunes ones. They have the benefit of being rated as ear defenders too, so you don't need to keep taking them out to put ear defenders on. Great if doing a weld / grind / weld session, as you can just leave them in the whole time.

I would choose wireless if using in a workshop, as one less thing to get tangled in spinny things, and you don't actually need your phone on you all the time.

Sorry should have said in the 1st post but mostly im using a hard hat with face screen and built in ear defenders so its something I can fit under the built in ear defenders

Old school Apple earbuds with ear hooks. Good enough, cheap, so long as you've a 3.5mm Jack socket. About the only Apple product I rate.

I use them under Bluetooth headphones when I want to listen to two sources, like the guitar and a backing track.

I would be wary of earbud speakers in the workplace in case they blocked out too many of the other important outside noises like "look out". The radio ear defenders I have are Bluetooth and I can still hear what's going on outside of them.

Mindful of the comments about cables and risks within the workplace, but also responding to the original question, I have some Sennhauser ear buds with background noise cancelling and they are cracking bits of kit...

Banned in our place for exactly that reason.

What ones do you have Bob? and would they fit on a chainsaw helmet?

For in a machine or in the workshop I use a pair of Nordstrand with built in radio, for the lads out on the saws we have adapted some motorcycle helmet comms into their chainsaw helmet muffs so they can communicate, listen to a radio or answer their phones. Its a six set system that is also paired up with six hand held walkie talkies.Works well, everybody can talk/communicate without all that shouting and hollering.

I use some £20 Anker blutooth buds and put my peltor ear defenders on over the top to keep them in, they are cheap and make work fly along
