Jaybird Run XT vs Jabra Elite Active 65T for gym?

jb600

Hey all,

 

Looking for a pair of decent earbuds for the gym (my basement) lol. I live with family and there's a baby in the house now so my portable speaker isn't really an option. 

 

I'm in Canada and both these headphones are $199 each. At regular price, obviously the Jabra's are the better choice. But right now, the Jaybirds are on sale for $129 and the Jabra's are $179 on sale. I know Jabras are often considered the best or among the best for the gym, but with the $50 price difference I'm wondering which is the better choice. I'm not a huge audiophile though I can pick up on some differences now and then. I listen to mostly rock and metal, and generally will NOT be cranking max volume in them. If there are other alternatives I'm open to it. I sweat a lot, so ones that are gym oriented (waterproof/resistant, dust resistant, and a decent build quality) are preferred. I also prefer not to have the wire running between the ears as it gets in the way.

 

Thanks!
