Hi all,

I'm going to start up running again and need a new set of work out headphones. I already have a couple of pairs of IEM's (Sennheiser CX-500's and Shure e4c's) but I don't want to get hit by a car because I couldn't hear it.

I'm currently deciding between a set of Sony MDR-G75LW's and the Sennheiser PMX100's.

Typically I would choose the Sennheiser's as they have better sound quality IMO and less emphasis on bass output than the Sony's. I'm a little concerned that the Sennheiser's will be too audible to people around me (I remember reading that the PX100's are easily heard by those around them) and I'm not sure how comfortable they are for working out in.

Has anyone tried either one and can offer up their experiences with them? Or if you have another suggestion for a set of cans in the $50 and under price range, please let me know.
Thanks!

I have a pair Sennheiser PMX 60's. I'm quite satisfied. The 60's look more like the Sony headphones you're also looking at. They are comfortable and I don't believe bleed is a problem.

Thanks for confirming. The PMX60's are a little different than the PMX100's



But I think I'll go with the PMX100's.
