Right when i purchased my HTC HD2, I knew that the headset that was budled with the phone was going to be utter crap... so I decdied to go searching for the "Perfect" Headset... (Music is very important to me.. and I'm not into the Blue-Tooth headsets) so I ended up purchasing these...
V-Moda Headset
I never heard of the brand but after some research and personal use.. They are by far the best ear pieces that I have ever owned... I highly recommend these to anyone who's currently in the market for some... although they are priced a little higher then most headsets.. I say that they are worth every penny and the quality in the Sound and Looks department is apparent.
Here's their website
www.v-moda.com
5/5 *if anyone has any questions feel free to post*
Cheers
I bought a set of V-Moda's about 2 years ago when the first iPhone came out. It had a recessed headphone port, and very few headphones would fit without an adapter. I ordered a pair for about £100 as they sponsored modmyifone and were highly recommended. The sound quality is great... very bassy, and they look good too. Mine have a single button on the mic which lets me answer the call or use MSVC. They've maybe moved on a bit in the last year?
I'd definately buy another set.
Yea the model I bought came standard with a 3.5 jack... but it did have an option for you to send proof of purchase if needed and they will send you a 2.5 adapter.. which i thought was kinda cool... great product
just figured i'd add the fact that i see that Best Buy is carrying these... and there's a V-Moda sale for these premium headsets... so yea.. just incase some others are interested for rocking some nice headsets with your shiny HD2

Those are probably some of the nicest in-ears you can buy for less than $300.
Read this if the price seems a little much.
The shure i2c-m's can be had of ebay for a very good price and offer very good quality sound. The same drivers as the e2c's that have very good dynamic drivers that increase in sound quality quite considerably after they been used for a reasonable amount of time. I'd also buy a tripple flange set of plugs or some foam ones, my favourite being the orange medium size shure brand, they give me a perfect fit with complete sound isolation. The quality of the microphone on these is also surprisingly good, better than my expensive bluetooth sonys.
The only problem is a lack of hardware button at the neck of the headphones for answering so i just press the phones hardware button in my pockets during use.
The following are what I use to listen to music and talk hands free.
When speaking to someone the caller is in stereo.
Although not "in ear" very reasonably priced.

Depends on if you actually want to hear your music or you want gimmicky EQ settings.
www.head-fi.org is your best bet.
Do you want actual headphones, or in-ears?
I've always been a fan of Skull Candy headphones. They are crystal clear.

i cant ever see myself paying that much money for a pair of headphones... absolutely ridiculous. I'm always happy with simple pair of headphones that will last a good while and serve its purpose. Don't see the point in paying so much money for something that could accidentally break as soon as you put it in your bag

They're not horrible, but if you do your homework, you can spend $20-40 on headphones that sound better than the best Skull Candy headphones.
I spent $100 on my Shure SE215's. They've got a 2 year warranty dvd removable cables, in addition to fantastic sound for those who like some bass with strong mids. They sound 3 times as good as my old Klipsch S4i's.
No danger in buying high quality audio of you take care of it.
Sony MDR-7506
They've been the industry standard for almost 25 years for a reason.
I bought a pair of Ultimate Ears 700 some time back and am extremely pleased with them. First, look what the Head-Fi crowd think of them:
http://www.head-fi.org/products/ultimate-ears-700-noise-isolating-earphones
As you can see they come highly recommended! My other IEM's are Shure SE530's, which for a long time were the benchmark by which all other IEM's were measured. Unfortunately they are also clunky, cumbersome and not at all suitable for sports use, which is why i bought the UE 700's.
The sound characteristics between the two are very similar though, which is remarkable considering that the Shures cost between two and three times as much as the UE's. If you consider yourself to be appreciative of audiophile quality though, you won't be disappointed by these. They really punch above their weight! The Shures are lower impedence and therefore easier to drive, although the UE's aren't so high that they require amping. Most portable MP3 players should be capable of providing a sufficient volume for the listener using the UE's.
Returning to the sports angle, one of the biggest benefits to me is the compact nature of the UE's. They are tiny, yet despite that don't feel at all fragile or weak. Using Comply Foam Tips they remain wedged into my ear canal throughout a three hour gym session no matter what activity i'm doing. They can also be worn with the cord over the ear or hanging down. There's no benefit or drawback to either that i can feel, it's user preference only. Nice to have the choice though.
If in three years i'm looking for another pair of IEM's to buy, i'd buy another pair of the UE 700's for sure!
I considered those highly myself, but wanted a little more bass. I figure when I'm ready to buy my next pair, it'll be something similar to UE 900.
Gotta love Head-Fi. Tons of great information over there.
Please can someone help me decide a good pair of headphones or earphones for the HTC One?
There are that many around but i need the ones that do the One's sound justice.
Cheers guys
I use monster turbine pro gold and the sound is awesome!!!!!!Incredible Sound Quality and high quality construction of metal!Google it...some people say that they are overpriced..I don't know if they are but for me are the best pair I have used!!!It's down to your personal needs though so good luck with your search!

urBeats
Just got the white urBeats from the handtec website today.
I've had them before with the Sensation XE but they were so good I had to buy them again. The remote & mic works perfectly with them. Not an audio expert but the sound quality very good, quite bass heavy, with good mids. The great build quality means they will last for ages as well.
The Monster turbines look awesome but i also like the Sennheiser IE 8, i'm not a real bass fan as i like easy listening music more.
Can someone with urBeats compair them with the ones that come with the phone?
i like the ones that come with the phone. not bad by any means
My Klipsch x10 earphones sound pretty darn good with the phone. I personally find the included buds to be garbage.
For the budget solution I can recommend the a-Jays 3. Their sound far surpasses their asking price, they have decent tangle-free cable, comes with a decent case and accessories, and are comfortable and very well made. I bought them when I lost some Senheissers that cost three times what these did, and they blow them out the water. Being aimed at more bassy music, they do falter slightly in the higher ranges if there are no other mid/lower sounds to support them, but they are perfect for my musical tastes. Their faults can also be mitigated if you use a player with a decent EQ. PowerAmp serves me well here.
Hunt around for a bargain, but even at £40 you are getting some buds that you'd be happy had you spent £100. Had mine two years and have no plans on changing them.
I was in the Verizon store where they had the Bose Soundlink Mini set up and I paired with it and played various types of music through it and all of them sounded incredible (no surprise, it IS Bose). I have been thinking about getting a GOOD portable bluetooth. This one would seem an obvious choice but one thing about it bugs me. It DOES NOT support handsfree calls. It's A2DP only. Seems like a pretty major oversight for something that is supposed to be a high end accessory for a smartphone.
So, I know some of the other brands out there are of course Jambox, JBL, Braven, Logitech, and I'm sure there are some more. What speakers have you guys found that you really like?
I think sony SRS-BTX300/BLK may be fit with ya

The JBL micro works very well. It's smaller, which makes it more portable. The drawback is also related to how small it is. Doesn't really do bass well and distorts at higher volumes. Still, a good all around portable that's easy to transport and sounds better and bigger than comparable speakers.
I have JBL Charge and I think is the best bluetooth speaker price/quality wise but no handsfree. If you want handsfree check out Logitech UE Boom.

I've been incredibly impressed with this Monster brand speaker. Amazing phone call quality, super small, incredible battery life (4-5 hours on a charge), and the sound quality is astounding considering it fits in the palm of your hand. Try to pay around $50 for it.

Picked up two at Radioshack for $30 each the other day. Great sound and range for the bluetooth.
I'm interested in in the Anker Bluetooth speaker now.

I got the Shoqbox SB7200 from Philips and it's been awesome!
Real cheap compared to other similar products.
* Rugged
* Water resistant (shower, rain, pool area)
* Dust proof (ideal for biking/hiking/camping/beach)
* Long lasting battery
* Gesture control (somewhat annoying at times but works great when used properly)
* Great sound (bassy)
* Cheap
