Why do you ask bots players these questions SJ? There are websites for this kind of stuff. Just read reviews on there.

I'm too poor to spend a stupid amount of money on overpriced headphones to care though.

It sounds like you want sound quality, beats are more a fashion statement, go for something less trendy if you want a better sound for a low price.

i have skull candy aviators sk pro's and skullcrushers which are brilliant but i have found my in ear beats are much better than any other in ear headphones i have had such as the skull candys full metal jackets 50/50 and fix

also i ask these questions because i fucking choose too also if it gets the forum more active then it is worth it

What Fishwick said, if you actually want a good sounding set, have a look at brands like Audio-Technica, Sennheiser, AKG, Beyerdynamic, V-moda.

Yeah, Beats are a fashion statement, so don't go with those unless that's what you're going for.

I've used Sennheiser HD 280 for 5 years now both at home and at work and like them a lot. $99.95 USD on Amazon.

/me waits for Erica the lurking audiophile to chime in

Why ask or read the opinions of hundreds of strangers when you can ask for the opinion of a dozen people you actually kinda know.

Also dre beats are for fucking tryhards.

I had a pair of beats that I got as a Xmas present a year or so back, I found them to be very disappointing an they didn't live up to the hype!

see my powerbeats in ear ones are awesome much better than my skullcandy in ear ones well i should say they are on par with the full metal jackets

tbh i have had nothing but trouble with sennheiser in the passed so i have not had anymore of them since i was around 18/19

anybody ever had any http://www.stuff.tv/akg-k451/review apparently these are best according to the website but obviously other websites will probably say different

Best headphones that you can get for Fistful of Dollars... Koss Porta Pro.

Since you're willing to spend some money, you might want to look into noise canceling headphones.

I've been very happy with my Sennheiser PCX 450. Instead of increasing the music volume to stupid levels to drown out the surrounding noise, it neutralizes it quite well. Obviously that's mostly useful when you're going to use them on the road / in loud environments.

Since you're not into Sennheiser, i hear the Bose Quietcomfort 20 does quite well.

also, i've had AKG's before - don't know that particular model, but as a brand they generally make good headphones.

Why do people use headphones?

iPod I can understand, but why would you carry around something 10x bigger than the player to listen?

Because they're more comfortable and provide better music quality than in-ears?

Just remember to get a shirt like this and you'll complete the look of your average douchebag!

The last 3 posts gave me an image that there exists a douchebag somewhere with headphones on driving a car (on the road as per Gpof's post) with a Monster shirt on yelling "BROOOOOOOOOOOOOO" out his window and not listening to haters because he has awesome noise canceling headphones on.

You can't buy imagination like mine because it's so broken :/

So.. my Sennheisers are broken. I guess it's a shitty brand after all ^_^

They still play, but the noise canceling is f'ed..

YMMV. I've been using the same Sennheiser HD-280 headphones for nearly 5 years now (really, I just looked when I placed the order - 2009-11-13). No problems with the audio, though some of the physical parts have signs of wear, e.g. the fabric on the earpieces is a little torn in some places.
