I have been looking for some new headphones, particularly skullcandy crusher or some thing along those lines. Not Bose way too expensive and I just wanted to here what you guys thought.

audio technica ath-m50. Literally by far one of the best sounding headphones for the price. they may not look that good, but they sound awesome. That is what I use for my video editing.

Sennheiser Momentum I was reading were very great headphones that look awesome IMO.

OP, start looking into real headphone brands. Skullcandy and beats are all overpriced for what they give you.

I know all you fake audiofiles are going to flip a shit when I say this, but god damn do my Bose QC 15s do wonders. I got them for $40 from a friend so you cant say I overpaid.



P.S. if you bitch at people about quality of headphones, but listen to mp3s, you have no say in the headphone game.

+K for you sir, I was actually just about to post this.
The truth is, the sound quality of all but the most mediocre headphones probably outstrip the sound quality of the music you have on your phone. Sad but true : /

Yea and to be honest, lossless is pretty useless if you listen while doing anything but sitting down in a quiet room. Theres so much outside noise when youre walking/riding the bus/sitting at starbucks

So true! This is one of the reasons I think vinyl is so beautiful, not only is it completely un-portable (forcing you to sit down and listen in at least a somewhat quiet room), but it also requires you to actually listen to the music as it was meant to be heard, because you can't just listen to one or two songs and ignore the rest of the album. You sort of have to listen to the whole thing. Funny how the convenience of digital has actually destroyed the experience of music listening in so many different ways.

ANYWAYS, uhh... Headphones, thats right. Buy some. Expensive ones.

Urban Ears makes some good ones for not too expensive. I have the Plattans and love them, great for the price.

i found some dope offbrand headphones at rite-aid for 20 bucks that were close to beats quality and they lasted me for 4 years before one of my friends stepped on them.
