Use a tin can with a string. Put the can over your ear and pound it right through the side of your head with a hammer. That oughta give you pretty good isolation.

I like my 280s a lot. Pretty good isolation.

As far as etymotic, I don't know about their in-ear stuff, but their earplugs are awesome.
