I'm after some headphones for when I'm out and about - pottering to the shops, that kind of thing. They won't get used loads so I don't want to spend a fortune but something that sounds half decent would be nice. £50 is the absolute max but cheaper would be much better. Not expecting Grado quality obviously.

Not in the ear types as I've given up on finding a pair that'll stay in my ears (I have three or four pairs. Of phones, not ears). Bluetooth would be nice but not essential.

Anything better for the money?

I've got some Bluedio ones that are surprisingly good for not a lot of cash. Loud enough to drown out the mower and most of the hedgecutter at least! Battery life is amazing.

See normally I'm all up for pushing the budget to get something nice, but those AKGs are three times as much as the SoundPeats (which are pretty well reviewed) that I could spend on riding my bike or buying records. I'll literally use these maybe once or twice every couple of weeks so cheap is important!

I got some soundpeats in ear Bluetooth headphones earlier this week and they're fine. Not the best headphones ever but more than enough for my needs.

I've got [url= http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/audio-and-headphones/headphones/headphones/jam-transit-hx-hp420bk-eu-wireless-bluetooth-headphones-black-10081509-pdt.html ]these[/url] for £30. The sound is very bass heavy and there's a background buzz when you connect via BT but they are fine for the job I bought them for (using on the turbo trainer).

In fairness - you stated in the OP

£50 is the absolute max but cheaper would be much better

Often on here - the "budget" quite easily gets bounced upwards when something nice gets linked to, so why so stressy?

(I was just trying to explain why I didn't want to push the budget rather than simply dismissing the suggestion offhand. So there)
