Ear buds

[Whiterook]

Can anyone suggest a really good brand of ear buds. I have tried what I use with my phone for music but they are a bit too loud. Any ideas? (other than wireless)

Many buds come with an in-line volume control.

If your MD has no volume control, you need to add one inline.
If you are interested in higher end in-ears, these are the best at blocking outside noise and providing the best quality sound for the money Etymotic Research | Earphones
If you are interested in going wireless to the MD these are the best for the money and provide a wired sound quality without the wires or delay. I own and use both. Note you do not need the inline volume control with the transmitter it has one built in.
Amazon.com: Signstek CZE-T200 0.2W Portable Stereo FM Transmitter Power Long Broadcast Range Adjustable Frequency 87~108MHz and 76~90MHz (Optional): Electronics
Amazon.com: Sangean DT-400W AM/FM Digital Weather Alert Pocket Radio: Electronics

One other option that comes with that transmitter which is very useful, is a clip on lapel microphone. The mic can be clipped to its wire and the input has its own level control and can mixed with the MD output. This lets you hear your surroundings with your phones on.. (pinpointer, Dogs, people etc.. ) If you are not using the mic the mic input should be set to 0 to eliminate the hiss caused by no input on the line..
Hope this was of some help.
