05.18.10 | 3 or 4, no doubt. I've owned them both; I'm more partial to Senn so I ended up keeping those, can't go wrong with either though. |

05.18.10 | Skullcandy is not great, do not go for 2. |

05.18.10 | dont buy skullcandys at full price. they have semi=annual promotions where you can get like 200 bucks worth of headphones for 50 bucks. they look the best but sound average... |

05.18.10 | "Soony's been doing this for a while, so they know."
Yeah cause longevity is the first signifier of quality.
"Earbuds cut quality by a ton and they are extremely bad for your ears."
Completely false.

05.18.10 | IEM's are the least detrimental to your hearing than any other type of headphones because you're able to listen to them at lower volume levels. |
Deviant.
05.18.10 | Proph: yeah that's true, but that's only if people want to listen to it low. And what I meant by them not being good for you is that yu shouldn't actually have anything IN your ear, vibrations so close to the ear drum etc.
Prolonged use of any headphones will do your hearing in eventually, but buds are still the worst ones |

05.18.10 | I should invest in a good set of headphones, really. |
Deviant.
05.18.10 | Some good music to go along with those new headphones wouldn't be a bad idea either |

05.18.10 | LOL oh you!
Looks like 4 has some brilliant reviews |
SpottedTrout
05.18.10 | yeah 4 is sounding pretty good. |

05.18.10 | Honestly, go with the iPod headphones that you can change the song and shit with. They sound great and have lasted me a decent amount of time.
Sennheiser are great too, sound really good, pick up bass and are very durable. Still haven't failed me yet but i switched to the others so i can change the song and shit haha. |

05.18.10 | You can get the "i" version of the Klipsch Image S4 that have the ipod controls built in.

05.18.10 | i have a pair of sony studio monitor headphones (or something like that, not sure what the exact name is) but they were a bit under $25 and I'm pretty satisfied. I have a big head though, so they seem a bit small sometimes.. |

05.18.10 | ffs just go into somewhere that sells headphones and just get some 'cheap' ones (£20 - £30) by Sony or Bose or something. |
KritikalMotion
05.18.10 | just get the sennheisers seriously
i have ad700's for home use, makes a big difference |
SpottedTrout
05.18.10 | well the only reason im considering paying that much for headphones is because when i just get a somewhat cheap pair the internal wires come disconnected after a few months. mainly i just need something that will last |

05.18.10 | If you care about listening to music at all spending a premium on headphones is an easy investment. |
SpottedTrout
05.18.10 | yeah once i get a job lol |
qwe3
05.19.10 | get the klipsch or the sennheiser ones |
bloc
05.19.10 | I'm actually going to buy 4 now |
