I'm looking to pick up a pair of top shelf headphones that I intend to use daily while putting through the rigours of multiple activities. (I.e. basketball, biking, jogging, etc.)

Is the Bose IE2 the way to go?

I asked a similar question here, a few months back.  I was told to get the Klipsch S4, I did and have zero complaints…...

[Finn666]

no one?
@Finn666:

since I always do care about my people,isn't there another better/cheaper way to ship things to somebody?

I'm always using dhl (=local post office!) and shipping to the USA f/example is truly a bitch…51$ (insured+tracking-I'D)

So I would be very happy if someone could help me on this?

Thanks in advance!

Cheapest way for you is to ship to me… I ship int'l for free, tracked. Ltd. by dimensions of package though.

Thanks, G. I just read a review that stated the wiring for the B. IE2 is thicker which may protect it from deteriorating better than the S4. As that was the issue with my previous pair of headphones, that might sway my decision.

Certainly not me, as I had to shell out over $70 to ship you your shirt. >_<  When dealing with long distance shipping it'll be really difficult to mitigate high costs, especially when you'd like to maximize the overall protection of the item(s) being shipped.

What?How come?You got connections dog? :)…

I can't go into specifics. But generally it's:

• 2-3 working days to €urope
• 5-7 working days to the US and rest of the world

'Signed for' service, tracked til delivery.

I'm not a courier service but once in a while I'm willing to do this… I've been doing this for certain IH forum members btw...

if the package is under 2kg and within  L+B+H = 900mm you can use registered airmail with insurance (Deutsche Post Wertbrief).
The insurance is 1.50 Euro extra for each 100 Euro of value + the normal lettermail fee + 2.05 Euro for the registered sending (Einschreiben). Thats usual way cheaper then the DHL rate.
