How ironic. Last night my headphones ripped in two. I need to pick up some today. The Sony ones are good.

D4rkShaDoWz · 09-01-2007, 02:42 PM

my ears are weird so my ipod ones hurt like hell. im just using the clunker fold-a-way ones. i hear the inner-ear phones are nice tho

L.A. · 09-01-2007, 02:43 PM

Seriously since the days of the walkman, earphones for me have only lasted months!!!!

I dont mind spending a 100 bucks on earphones as long as they sound good and last a while!!!

L.A. · 09-01-2007, 02:45 PM

Right now Im leaning towards the Sennhieser!!! Its gotten great reviews!!! Its 80bucks at CC but im going to get it on ebay alot cheaper!!!

I play my mp3 player in my car, so my Yaris' stereo system is my headphone.

Sony sucks... I've gone through 3 pairs of their headphones, and all within the space of 2 months, they no longer work

I would suggest Phillips or Bose

WTFimVENOM · 09-01-2007, 03:27 PM

Skullcandy

I have a Creative Zen Vision: M and I use the Ultimate Ears Super.fi 5 EB Earphones. Those are expensive earphones, like around $100. Luckily I had a 50 dollar gift card that I used on it to bring it down a bit. Are they worth the money, maybe, but probably not. The sound is awesome on them though but if I didn't have a gift card I would have gotten something lower priced.

I use these guys from Sony:

They came with a little carrying case and have lasted me a couple years, but apparantly you all go through headphones faster than me.

Vilya · 09-01-2007, 03:57 PM

I still like those big head-sets from Sony

I bout a 15 dollar pair of Sony headphones a year and a half ago, and I use them for hours a day. They still work perfect. And they have gone through abuse, because I dance while using my mp3 player and a lot of times my arm or one of my legs get caught in the cord and yanks on them.

The sound quality is good too. Not the best sound I ever heard, but pretty good, and they stay on my ears and don't fall off when I'm dancing.

I recently bought some earbud headphones, but I'm starting to think it was a mistake...

why do they have to have one cord longer than the other?... It makes no damn sense

knowsbleed · 09-01-2007, 04:26 PM

Depends on what you want from your headphones? Sony does have a good selection of earbuds. I personally like these as they have extra bass:

They have a great rating on Cnet.com (gadget freaks emporium) but may be a little too bass heavy for some.

I used to own the Shure E4c but they were stolen from me:

They are excellent as well, if you are willing to pay $150+ for your earbuds.

Super Kal · 09-01-2007, 04:27 PM

I might go out and get a different pair... or save my money and get some Bose headphones

knowsbleed · 09-01-2007, 04:29 PM

Those Vmodes I mentioned above are only 40-50 bucks...depending on where you buy them.

Its so you can wrap it around the back of your neck.

knowsbleed · 09-01-2007, 04:38 PM

Did I say 150+?

I meant 299 retail.

Wow Kak, you couldn't figure that out?

The earbuds that came with my Zen V plus.

The headphones I use for my CD player and computer are these

knowsbleed · 09-01-2007, 05:28 PM

Sennheiser is very good as well.

I used to have these Sennheisers:

They were pretty good for their purpose.

Here's a bunch of headphones with reviews...mostly from a DJ perspective but make of it what you will. http://www.turntablelab.com/dj_equipment/71/144/
