OK, I'll bite.
 
I received my first ear bud device as a gift...in 1958 or '9. It was a 7-transistor (woot!) AM radio with no speaker, only a single ear bud. I was living in central Texas at the time, so the only time the radio worked was at night, on the clear channels. My favorite thing to do was lie in bed at night and listen to the Yankees baseball games. Those teams (59-61) were amazing!
 
That radio worked PERFECTLY until?
 
One of my little brothers got p'd at me (don't they all?) and ripped the ear bud cord out of the radio. Daddy? No help there. No replacement.
 
My next ear bud came with an iPod.

i will bite-I spend a lot of time doing maintenance with my buds in.
unfortunately they do get a bit uncomfortable after 90 mins or so but I`m usually finished.
using your skull as a bass port may not be ideal but once you get the fit nice and snug,the bass is awesome especially if you are using machinery or in a loud place-otherwise the HD 280`s suffice,for me anyway.
Sennheiser Cx 220 previously but they got run over-replaced with CX 300II and are if anything too bassy........around $70
my wife gave me the new buds from her new iphone and they are still as bad as when first released.
horses for courses methinks

They did not change my life. I only wear them when I walk. 
If they sounded like my ATH M50's, that would be note worthy!

good for you-as I said-horses for courses-especially when price is not a barrier.
I can afford a Porsche but not much good around the farm
cheers
