Headphones all the way(only around the ear and on-ear normal or large sized). Ear canals are not flexible and mine get very painful with IEMs irrespective of bud size. Also, the lack or airflow causes irritation.

I was only talking about my exprience. Headphone are uncomfortable and difficult to wear in summers(Not all are heavy). But earphones give me a severe headache so I don't use them.


I am on the same boat, bro. :(

I dislike both, but earphones hurt badly - giving both headache and earache.

its like comparing a mini mouse to a proper desktop mouse.

both are for same purpose.

when.i'm on desktop obviously i'm goin to use full sized mouse for gaming/designing...

mini mouse is useful when using laptop because its small and extremely handy.

get the point?

I prefer Headphones:bananana:...

But this poll is not valid:flamethrower:, Earphones are not comparable to Headphones. Ear phones are used for smaller Gadgets and quality head phones can't used with them b'coz of their higher current rating. Similarly I have seen many good quality ear phones give noise with High wattage music systems.

Ear-phone is good only for mobility where as Head phone is purely for Music lovers:doublethumb:..

Woah! Both have audiophile grade offerings. Also I have seen enough people with those beat, sennheiser and bose headphones on wrapped around their necks during my travelling sessions. Also a fair share of earphones, but like I said its not a criteria to categories them based on.

With that said, yes, the earphones are better for travelling due to their portability but if you have a pair of cans you love, I am sure you wont ditch them for earphones just so you can travel.

those with "ear aches" using Head phone (hp), buy a proper hp that fits your ears, like SOny MDR XD200 or philips shp2700.

not frontech/lalootech/zebronics/yourball...

this is why one should go thru some reviews of products before buying them.

Wearing headphones or earphones for just an hour will induce replication of some bacteria in your ear. That's what I read not so long ago somewhere.

LOL. Practically, you don't need to do anything to induce replication of bacteria. :razz:
