Sacrifice? Not necessary! I'm a major audiophile and right now I'm listening to tunes on some $20 headphones, and the sound is abstolutely perfect (for what I'm looking of anyway). If you're only looking for earbuds to keep in your pocket, then maybe you will have to go expensive. But if you're willing to get some nice big headphones, you can get something with beautiful sound for less than $30.

Many of these ones over a hundred dollars are only that expensive because they play an array of frequences that "lower" headphones can't reach. The rediculous facter here, though, is that those extra frequencies you're paying for are outside the range that regular people can hear. Yeah, the corporate world sucks.


Right now the headphones I'm listening to are called "EXCEL international electronics - CDS850". Like I say, $20 and fantastic. Otherwise I recommend going with something from KOSS; they make great headphones as well.
