If you want cheap earbuds, your best bet is probably to just to go to Target or Best Buy and see what they've got. There really aren't too many options.

Sennheiser makes some nice earbuds that are pretty cheap. They won't be white, though.

Oh right... forgot about the MX400/500 series. And if I'm not mistaken, they just came out with a minor update... MX450/550.

I would wholeheartedly recommend the Sennheiser MX500's, which you can find for under $20. I can't think of a better value, sound-wise. I've also heard good things about the Koss KCS 35, which is a clip-on ear piece style.

The 450/550 actually are 16 ohm, as opposed to the 32 ohm for the 400/500 series. The previous MX-4 was also 16 ohm, and sounds noticeably better than the 400. So hopefully the new ones will be as good as the old ones. :)

Just want to update on this... I bought the 550 and they r nice. Fits good and got this nifty volume control on the cord so thats very nice to have. The sound quailty is better than the stocks IMO but the bass doesnt seem as "thumpier" if u want that. The sound is more rich and lively but gives out on the heavier bass stuff. But it is still better than the stock with its quality of sound. Pretty good for 25 bucks i say. Hope someone finds this helpful.

if you want to have better sound but little cheap one, go with Philips in-ear bud (white/black). model HE59 or 61(?) I don't remember well. but Target has it. it just $29.95. it produces vitual sound effect inside ears. it's reall better for Bass, too.
