RumPuncher 37 Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 I'm a headphone freak. well... not that kind of freak... so how about them cans? ^ these are some great sonys but NOT for wearing around. I dont care how bad you want to look like a dj, with your record bag and your stanton t-shirt, please dont wear them outside. ^ these are some nice light weight sennheisers. This company does some great work. ^ this is the mother of all headphones. The Sennheise Orpheus. Too bad they cost well over 10 grand. ^ Here's the Shure E2 earbuds. Apparently the sound is amazing, and at the price.... it damn well better be! ^ these are the koss plug. They only cost about $20 so I think I might pick up a pair this weekend.

PUMPKIN ESCOBAR 34 Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 How are those sennheisers? I'm interested in getting a pair. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

why write? 2 Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 i get the dollar headphones that break a week later, i need headphones that will last for longer then that, but i want good sound and 20 dollar and cheaper, any suggestions? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 for cheap and decent mini headphone... got fot the Sony MDRW08L they are super light and flexible so they wont break. I'm on my second pair in something like 8 years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nekro 1 Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 The shure e2s are actually pretty sweet. I got a pair for a family member to wear on airplanes and ended up using them myself on a day to day basis. They're essentially really good earplugs with good headphones inside them. I could be standing five feet away from someone listening to medium volume music while that person is yelling at me and not hear a thing. They're worth the money if you listen to your music on headphones a lot (more than an hour a day). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nekro 1 Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 The bad thing about the e2s is that they kind of look like hearing aids when you're wearing them, so there are several dozen people who think I'm deaf. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hyrax 0 Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 pioneer se-dj5000s for my decks. probably wouldn't wear them in public, though i used to use a big pair of JVCs. i dont think there's anything wrong with wearing dj headphones in public unless you actually look like you're trying to look like a dj. dj cans usually have pretty good frequency response and good bass drivers, plus they're sturdy. those sennheisers look like theyre gonna fall the fuck apart any minute if i ever get another portable music player, i'd probably be leaning towards investing in a pair of good earbuds Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Manifesto 0 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 i just bought a pair of Akai ear plug headphones from coconuts. its what im looking for, for the winter. they have hooks to hook around the ear, and volume control. they fit under a beanie real nice, and are good for snowboading, since the hooks keep them staying in place and i can adjust the volume withouth having to take off my gloves or taking out my ipod. but for none winter days, i have sony MDR-V250 they are a smaller version of the studio headphones. and i also have sondy MDR-500 for my turntable, but they flop around too much.

IzacFour 0 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 I got these. Standard low price model. tdk mp100's. They have a weak point on the bridge. Bit of electrical tape fixes it, They give a pretty good response. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CAPiTA 0 Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 I'm a huge nerd when it comes to my headphones. ^I own these, imported from Japan^ ^I'll soon be buying these, and...^ ^one of these^ So then the plan is to run 3d sound imaging programs on my laptop so I can achieve ultimate geekstatus playing Halo2 in perfect surround sound. I play competitive Halo, and having accurate surround sound is crazy important. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nekro 1 Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 Bad news. My Shure e2s disappeared. However, the sony MDR-EX71s are supposed to be just as good at 1/3 the price, so I ordered a pair in white. Update when they get here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 see I'm still havent bought the Koss Plug, so If I cant find them, I may go for those sonys instead. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nekro 1 Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Well I found my Shures at the bottom of my laundry basket (who knows how they got there). I knew I should have waited a couple more days before declaring them lost and gone forever. Key/Kilo/Zesto: I'd spring for the sonys if I was you. I looked at some of those Koss jobbers and they seem really cheaply made and crappy compared to the sonys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CAPiTA 0 Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Definately get the Sonys. They're not as nice as the Shures, but definately a better value. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 yeah... I dont think I can cheap out on headphone. the MDREX51LP are only like $60, and that's double the price of the Koss, but chances are they will last 10x as long. My current 'Vertical in-the-Ear Headphones' sony sport headphones have been with me for the past 5 years and they have gone though hell. (but not the laundry.... no headphone can survive that!)
