[QUOTE="Doug b, post: 1024999, member: 59143"] Altec Lansing is a third party manufacturer for Ultimate Ears as well as Etymotic. I got a pair of their iM616's from Amazon last year on sale for about $40. Best deal ever. I gave them to my cousin, but have since gotten a different pair, which are of the UE super.fi 3 type and they're just as good, if not slightly better to my ears. In fact, they have lowered the price on them : [URL='http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000Q7IA5E/?tag=macforums0e4-20']Amazon.com: Altec Lansing UHP336 Snugfit In-ear Earphone: Electronics[/url] And here are the Etymotic ones: [URL='http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000BKBZGC/?tag=macforums0e4-20']Amazon.com: Altec Lansing inMotion iM616 Headphones: Electronics[/url] Great deal I'd hop on.
