Ipod's and more! Our parents enjoyed portable music by listening to battery operated radios. Then Walkmans replaced those. Then CD players (Diskmans) replaced those. Today, owning an Ipod is the way to enjoy your choice of great music that you've downloaded from your computer. They are small, lightweight, highly portable, easy to use, and an affordable purchase.

But imagine this: imagine that you're in the desert and you're really thirsty. You find a wonderfully clean well full of delicious looking water. But the tap and hose you'll use to fill your canteen is full of mud. The water going into the hose may be clean but the water coming out of the hose is undrinkable.

The point being...are you disappointed with the quality of music coming out of your MP3 player? Like the desert scenario above, it may not be the source, but the method of transferring (your headphones).

Like the water source in the illustration, your sound player may provide great sound going into the headphones but like the muddy hose, if your headphones are not of very good quality then you could end up not enjoying the music you're listening to. It could even go so far as to cause permanent hearing damage because you turn up the headphones so you can hear the music over the background noise only to damage your ear drums.

Good quality head phones should be purchased based on these 4 factors: comfort level, affordability, durability, and ability to accurately transmit the sound. The ability to accurately transmit the sound to your ear is going to be critical to your enjoyment.

Some people wonder why is the quality of the music is so important to hear. Obviously, most of these people have never experienced true, high quality sound the way it could (and should) be. Your earphones are devices that use advanced technology to get the sound from the listening device to your ears.

Once at your ears, their job has only just started! If you prefer a less expensive brand, you could be sacrificing sound quality. Or if you go for the popular style of earbud or supra-aural earphones (which simply sit on your ear and usually go over your head with a headband), you will find a wide range of quality. These are good headphones but unfortunately they often compete with background noise, reducing the quality of the sound you hear and increasing the volume you have to listen to the music.

Canalbuds are some of the best types of earphone devices to get. They are a little more expensive but far more effective at providing true sound while eliminating background sound (the two factors in giving you the very best listening experience.

But don't worry if your budget doesn't allow for the higher priced earphones. You'll find a good set of mid-range Ipod headphones to suit your budget while still giving you good sound quality. All you need to do is just shop around.

Makers of high quality Ipod headphones include Shure, Sennheiser, Ultimate Ears, Skullcandy and others.
