Headphone recommendations?

I am just looking for something that will not fall off my head during light/moderate activity... so either in-ear buds or a "sport style" on-ear set. But leaning towards buds.
I have been happy with my Skull Candy Chops. Ear buds never seem to want to stay in my ears, especially if I am working out while listening to music. The Chops wrap the back of the ear to stop them from falling off/out. They are relatively inexpensive too.

the best snow shoveling and snow blowing gear I've ever used while listening to tunes was running an ear bud up inside my autox full face helmet and going to town. it was epic, warm, and wind free.
Dang that is genious

This sounds like the type of genius idea that only happens after a few beers/drinks.

Well the wife got me these for Christmas. Very nice and they stay put better them other ear buds I have had. I don't jog in them but then again I don't jog ever so take that for what it is worth. I like them for the mic too work with my phone so i can answer calls without pulling my phone out.

I have found that they are much more clear then other ear buds I have. The bass is good no matter how they are sitting. But it is only bass you can hear not feel so no matter what I think head phone bass is always a little lack luster.


Side note is I have turned the volume down after using these. They are just louder I think or they cancel more outside sound by going a little bit farther into my ear then others do.

I'm not as worried about having a lot of bass, as much as how they sit in your ear having a HUGE effect on how the bass sounds. My current set, if I push them snugly in my ears, the bass is a bit overpowering, and when they are seated so the bass sounds good they fall out of my ears too easily. And even when they are seated snugly, they always seem to work themselves loose, and start to sound more and more tinny as they fall out.
