Hi.

Can anyone recommend a pair, with a budget of about £50-60?

Or do I need to spend more? 

I bought some Gabba Good Truebuds Elitr and setting them up is a frustrating thankless goddamn struggle. I want to destroy them with a hammer and send the parts back to their family.

Check out Raycon - they have great reviews. Just ordered for my wife after she's turned down 3 other pairs : Anker, Cambridge Audio and Mpow.

Towpath that's legal for bikes or not?

If yes, then push them in, their fault

If no, then push them in, you're already a criminal

As already mentioned - the Anker ones get decent reviews and their kit usually works well.

I have used Jabra Elites for the last couple of years. the 65t will be just over 100 nowadays as they are being replaced by the (better battery life) 75t. I use them running, walking and cycling - they have never fallen out of my ears. Plus they connect easily to my laptop for telecons.

I have had a pair of Amazon Echo buds and a pair of Isotunes, both went back because of quality issues. 

The Amazon ones were more comfortable and sounded better but less secure in my cavernous lug holes.

Try Mpow X3.. I bought it from Amazon and its sound is very good. It has noise cancelling feature.. but cannot say it's 100% effective.Fairly worth for its price...hope my experience will be helpful for you

I bought a pair of these, i can honest say i wasn't expecting much but so far i have been pretty impressed, they are small, pair easily, stay in well and the sound quality is actually pretty good

Hearing aids - stunning bluetooth sound quality, adjusted to match my hearing and all day battery life.  The downside is that my lawful wedded opponent gets irate when she says something I don't hear because there's music playing.  Cue "What's the point......." etc.   Shame about the budget though.......

I got some Encafire F1's off amazon for about £40. Had them about 2 months now and they are good. Decent sound and battery life. Worth a look.
