I need some earbuds for music

[iLostMyXbox21]

So in class, my teachers let me listen to music as long as I work, however my earbuds broke yesterday, and my anxiety was shooting through the roof and I couldn’t focus on my work, so I need to get new earbuds, honestly I wouldn’t like to spend more then $20, and I want to have them semi loud (about half volume) with good quality without disturbing the people around me, also no over-ear since I have glasses and they will just not work well with them.

Oh yeah, and please not wireless, as I don’t want to have to charge them and I pretty much always use them

I have a pair, sound good for its price and the fact that they are earbuds, and you get to brag that you have sennheisers.

Well, if you want "earbuds" on a budget, I'd recommend Venture Electronics Monk plus.

If you don't mind IEMs, I recommend the KZ ZSNs, they're rather excellent for the money.

Okay thank you so much, I bookmarked the page and I will try to order them tomorrow. How loud is it from the outside, like can the people around you hear them too? I remember I had apple earbuds and if I could hear it, I could be certain everyone else could too

So I looked up the Venture ones, and they just look way too fragile

and the KZ ZSNs look suuuper uncomfortable in my opinion, they look like something you would put in a clock

That's what you'd think, but the ZSNs are probably one of the most comfortable IEMs I've ever used (only the Bose SoundTrue were more comfortable for me), they sit in the ear really well, and the wire wraps around your ear nice and tight too.

The monks are as durable as any other cheap earbud, they don't feel particularly flimsy or well built, but I can't comment on much since I don't use mine very often.

Ahhh, I've got slim metal frames on my glasses so they fit pretty well

look for something in-ear if you don't want anyone to hear what you're hearing.

Yeah, that’s what I’ve had, they still radiate sound outwards

 

 

probably would help if I spent more then $5 on a pair of earbuds though

If you can get SoundMagic E10s where you live it for a decent price it might be a good choice. (probably around 30 dollars)

If you can stretch that far, it's worth it. The Sennheiser CX300 (not around anymore) and later the SoundMagic E10 were my gateway drugs into audiophile land when I was in middle school.
