seeking Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 http://www.sonystyle.com/intershoproot/eCS/Store/en/imagesProducts/250x250/MDREX51LP.jpg'> so after spending hundreds of dollars on my ipod only to settle for the supplied earphones, i realized, hey, wait, thats like buying a benz an rollin on stocks... fuck that. so i went out and got a pair of these. $32 on canal street. theres so much bass, its dumb. they're totally comfortable, and they use your whole head to produce deep bass. its weird. if you dont have them all the wya in your ear, they're real high pitched, but as soon as they're in all snug, they bump nicely. i highly suggest them to anyone and everyone with ears.

slightly Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 ive got really weird ears, i cant get down on those 'pod' type of headphones. I tried the around the back of the head ones...nope. the around the around the ear ones..meh, kind of, they made my ears tired.then i just went to the dollar store and bought some classics. Im sure i can find better but im not really rocking them too much, I use it more in my car for which i have a little device that projects a radio signal which i can tune into to hear what i have playing on the pod. Ill have a little money on vacation, so maybe ill hook it up then. -slightly too much inforation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 Yo seeks, how much sound leaks OUT? I need a new pair of headphones that I can listen to and not disturb people around, and I'm sick of backband/closed cup cuz they take up so much space. Opinion?

Guest Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 I like to rock the sony DVW-500 as for headphones I like the sennheiser mx-400 for ear buds. They aren't really my thing though. I prefer real 'phones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opinion? none at all. they work so well, cause they plug your ears up like...well, ear plugs. nothing escapes. there are better earbuds of course, but for the money, these things cant be fucked with.

Spike Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 Sounds like I'm gonna have to buy some. Kilo, how does that fit in your ears? You should probably see a doctor about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarzAbove Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 What store in canal i've been lookin for those??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeking Posted July 23, 2003 Author Share Posted July 23, 2003 ok, um... well, you can get them anyplace, but they're cheaper at this spot. at the corner of canal & broadway, is a sobarro's. walk up canal, past sobarros, away from broadway. about a block or so up, on the left hand side (obviously) there will be a little shop, you go up two steps to get into it. there will be a bunch of video tapes and shit on the right hand side as you go in...its long and narrow. headphones/cd players and stuff are half way to the back on rt. hand side. cant miss em. the store is easy to find actually. but again, you can get them pretty much anywhere, but if you're in NY an wanna save ten bucks, hook it up. i tend to buy something everytime im there.

CAPiTA Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 You guys have it all wrong. If you're looking for a pair of earbuds for the pod, you have to get a pair of Etymotics. They're the most amazing headphones ever made. They put the 51s to shame. Etymotic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrChupacabra Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 My dad has the etymotics, very nice, i've never tried the sonys, but the etymonics are definitely worth the extra loot. I can yell at him from a like 10 feet away and if he doesn't see me he rarely will hear me. Surprisingly comfortable too. also, you can find the etymonics for around or under 100, my dad got a really nice pair almost a year ago for about 100, so i'm sure yu can find them now for cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElectricitySucks Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 am i the only one that doesnt like the little earphones that go in your ear? i prefer the the ones that just cover your ear and go around the back of your head.
