12.02.11 | everyone will disagree but Wicked Audio Headphones. Personally I love them |
BigBlob
12.02.11 | JVC ha-fx 1000
They have wooden diaphragms. Sound AMAZING. |
omnipanzer
12.02.11 | Beats Tour
and an old pair of Sony clip ons |
Gilgamahesh
12.02.11 | On Wicked Audio's site I found a lot of A-Jays, which I've always kinda shied away from. Or do you mean the Audio Technica?
And the JVCs look tempting especially as the beats tours I have right now (a gift, not my choice) are pretty close in price and with an extra 30 I could get those instead. |
Gilgamahesh
12.02.11 | Omni beats tours are decent but what did you pay for them? I really like the cord though, and I'm not too against the flashy aesthetic. |
omnipanzer
12.02.11 | LOL, They were a gift, Id never pay that much for ear phones. ;^) |
stabbler
12.02.11 | incidentally - 5, 7 and 9 of what you're currently listening to are three of my all time favourite albums |
Gilgamahesh
12.02.11 | Haha gotcha omni. But yeah now that you HAVE heard what shit sounds like in a high-priced IEM are you starting to reconsider?
@stabbler HELL YES. Patton is god. |
omnipanzer
12.02.11 | No, they're great but they're unnecessary imo. You can get great sound at a third of the price really. I can't imagine spending more than $50 on a pair of ear phones and that is stretching it really. |
Gilgamahesh
12.02.11 | What bit rate do you listen to? But yeah I get where you're coming from. Waaay better things to spend a few hundred on, like strippers and crack. Or is that just me. |
omnipanzer
12.02.11 | Best I can get, FLAC whittled down to 320 if I can help it. |
omnipanzer
12.02.11 | Haha Baseline |
taxidermist
12.02.11 | Lol, cool design. |
Gilgamahesh
12.02.11 | Lmao. Oh baseline, you're just such a baseline. |
BaturTogay
12.02.11 | Sennheiser |
pcar
12.02.11 | Stay the fuck away from Monster or Beats, for the love of God.

WANT. Probably gonna refund my stupid tours and get these. |
taxidermist
12.02.11 | Holy fuck that's pricy. |
Gilgamahesh
12.02.11 | Well I'll only be spending about $30-$40 on em since I'm refunding $250 tours which I didn't buy in the first place. And no, I do a lot of jogging so no OEMs for me. |
Ending
12.02.11 | I would highly recommend Sennheiser. I own two of their over ears and they're so comfortable and sound excellent. Amazon usually sells them at pretty good prices too. |
taxidermist
12.02.11 | I'll probably get sennheisers for at home/on the go music listening. For running I'll stick to my old earbuds. |

12.05.11 | koss portapros |
Gilgamahesh
12.05.11 | Will look into it, but the market in Australia is jack shit. Apparently people here don't use iPods. |
qwe3
12.05.11 | yeah it is im looking for a pair right now that are 80 bucks online in the US but 150 from jb hifi |
Deviant.
12.05.11 | Good old JB
Phillips SHL9600's at the mo |
Gilgamahesh
12.05.11 | Buncha ripoff artists. The Beats Tours I'm using cost $240 (I didn't buy it) when anywhere else they're over a hundred less. Which is why I get my shit from amazon now. Takes fucking forever but I've got better things to spend money on. |
Gilgamahesh
12.07.11 | I know I said that fuck Monster but the $180 Turbines are actually fucking worth the price. Bass is booming, mids are strong and clean, and highs are not nasal and annoying. I hate to give it to them but they've made a great product this time. |

12.07.11 | koss portapros |
Gilgamahesh
12.07.11 | I've got to get one of those for at-home listening, but I do a lot of jogging and shit so an IEM is pretty much necessary for me, and the Monster Turbine is a really impressive deal. |
qwe3
12.07.11 | oh sick
shure do great in ears too |
Gilgamahesh
12.07.11 | Yeah man they've got great ratings too. It just takes forever for Amazon to ship stuff to Australia so the main question is how long will you wait before settling on overpriced crap at JB Hifi. |
