They present five of their favorite headphones and earbuds to replace the standard cheapy earbud set that ships in the box. Prices for these suggestions range from a reasonable $60 (for the Yamaha RH5MA mid-size headphones) to a rather expensive $329 for Shure i4c earbuds. The Shure earbuds come with three different kinds of earpads, which after squeezing adapt to custom fit your ear canal. Frequent travelers and commuters may want to consider the noise-cancelling Sony MDR-NC11 at $150.
