If you have a lil more budget, the BANG & OLUFSEN A8 Earphones sound great. They are a masterpiece of INDUSTRIAL DESIGN. About $100. Available in B & O Shop Ocean Terminal 2/F, Hongkong or Orchard Road near Hyatt, Singapore. Or even EBAY.
The most beautiful earphones you can buy. The only thing that can draw more attention than an IPOD. But be warned, my friend who got these for an IPOD said that strangers actually come up and query him about those "techy aluminum contraptions" stuck on his ears.
