Best iPod Earbuds? I'm off to the Apple store in a bit

Best? The Sony's are not the best. They are boomy and have exagerated bass. Blah.

If it has to be ear buds go with something from Etymotic or Shure. The sound is far superior to anything from Sony or Apple.

Personally I dislike earbuds and prefer traditional over the ear headphones. Check out the Grado SR-60s. They are possibly the best sounding headphones you'll ever find for the iPod (or anything else for that matter).

If you want something a little more "hip" looking but still have great sound look for Sennheiser.
