For pain cave, I prefer traditional over-ear cheap headphones. First, I never want charging to be a factor. Second, they are in a hostile environment, so cheap is key. Third, over-hear blocks trainer noise way better than in-ear.

I have had these for 18 months so far and several hundred hours of ride time: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005N9D3

For outdoor workouts, I like the BT Plantronics BackBeat Fit. I have over 100 hours of outdoor rides and runs with no issues. One aspect of these I like is that they do not block ambient noise, so I can hear what is around me.

Exactly what I was looking for and love the price. Thank you.

I've used Sennheiser Sports heaphones for several years. They are sweat and water resistant and quite sturdy. And sound quality is not bad at all. (https://en-uk.sennheiser.com/sport-headphones)

Thank you.

I use Trekz Titanium bone conduction. Brilliant and they have so far survived 2 years of being drowned in sweat.

Throwing my opinion in the ring. Beats x, If you're an iPhone user these come in handy since they use the same lightning charger. They're also super easy to pair with iPhones.

I've ran many miles with them, also rode many miles on the trainer with them.

Ditto... These are fantastic

Just get truly waterproof earbuds from Ebay or Amazon (<$10 shipped). They are rated for swimming, so trainer sweat won’t phase them.

IME they last years (eventually there is enough random tugging on the wires that something breaks).

I've been using a pair of Plantronics Backbeat Fits for 2 winters' worth of treadmill running.

I use these Bose earbuds:

Sweat hasn't caused any issues, and they stay in place, and they allow some ambient noise through for safety.

another vote for trekz titanium on amazon. i have two pair now. very solid with good sound quality for what they are and they keep a charge for a good while.

With so many options available the JBL Reflect Mini BT have served me well during excessive sweaty indoor training. The in ear buds help seal out trainer and fan noise and have decent battery life and are easy to pair with the phone and with the Amazon Fire TV box on occasion. I went into Best Buy to get Bose, but the store clerk talked me into the JBL because they were cheaper and were also on sale that day. Turned out to be a decent purchase.
