    What's the best set of earbuds with a mic (for use with iPhone or other smartphone)? I've seen quite a few nice sets of earbuds, but the good ones don't seem to have mic capabilities. Admittedly, I haven't look very hard. I'm sure some folks on here have experience/opinions.

    Thanks in advance.

    I'm actually curious about the best available at any price and what y'all might think are the best for the best price.

    Thanks, A00man.

    They're called headphones, regardless of size.

    This is an earbud:

    Well Amazon just had them again this year for $95. But its gone now...Otherwise their $300, I'm sure you can buy them cheaper on eBay with the influx of resellers trying to make a quick buck.

    i think this year's sale is the earphone only version, not the version with the mic, still great earphones nevertheless.

    You can buy the mic cables for 20$ I think from the logitech/ue website. Easy swap for the triplefi.
