Everyday Carry, or EDC, generally refers to small items or gadgets worn, carried, or made available in pockets, holsters, or bags on a daily basis to manage common tasks or for use in unexpected situations or emergencies. In a broader sense, it is a lifestyle, discipline, or philosophy of preparedness.

Anonymous asked: Any headphone recommendations? I’m looking for earbuds since I carry them every day. I had a pair of Skullcandy Ink'd that died after 3 months (I don't wrap em around anything) and Skullcandy sent me a new pair but now the same thing has happened again so I think I need a new brand.
I take it you’re already comfortable with using semi-canalphones like those Skullcandies. I would pretty much avoid Skullcandy, Beats by Dre, Bose etc type of headphones.
In my recent memory Sennheiser CX300/Creative EP-630/Sharp MD-33 are good canalphones for the money. Slightly bass-heavy, though.
If you can afford to spend around $100+, look into in-ear monitors by Westone, Shure, Ultimate Ears, Etymotic Research, Sennheiser… I know there are more recent models but to be honest I’ve tried really hard to avoid this hobby because it can get pretty expensive.
You’ll find better answers at head-fi.org. I would help you out and do some research for you like I do with other posts but it’s too risky for my wallet.
If anyone cares, I have Shure SE530s and am looking to upgrade to SE535s.
