03.15.12 | "fag"
wouldn't have bought them if it wasn't for the price. normally, they're around 100-150, so fuck that |
Scoot
03.15.12 | you must know a lot about sound quality |
Strider
03.15.12 | well not a lot, but I thought I could try them out since they were cheap |
Fugue
03.15.12 | Apparently they're made of a very brittle material and break rather easily, just try to look after them. I have no idea about the sound quality as this is based on hearsay. |

I have a 15$ pair regular headphones and they sound fine."
I got some Klipsch Image Over ears for 70$ (regular price on them is about 150$) and it basically changes your outlook on life itself |
Strider
03.15.12 | I can make the difference between 15 dollar earphones and 40-50 dollar ones though ( Apple earphones vs. Sennheiser ones) |

03.15.12 | I own the $300 studio beats by dre and they rule. The low end sounds amazing. |

03.15.12 | i typically rip people who pay the premium for beats for a couple of reasons:
1. as a global point: when you have digital music, there are too many variables that change the way the songs will sound before it even reaches your headphones, so paying $$$ seems retarded to me (again, this is for most people, not really audiophiles)
2. beats by dre are fucking ugly. (the on ear versions). As for the buds, all buds look the same (so unless you bought the Gaga ones, i think you're just overpaying).
bottom line, i hate to incite buyer's remorse, so if the 'signature' beats sound works for you, then sweet deal, man. If you hadn't already pulled the trigger, i'd suggest that if you want to pay a premium for headphones, you go with:
a) something for the best sound (the higher grade models of sennheiser/klipsch/bose)
b) something for the best look (skullcandy)
i have gotten over 30 pairs of skullcandy 'phones since 2006 |

03.15.12 | I was about to be like, WHY YOU MORON, but for $40, I guess... |

03.15.12 | Mine were a gift, so I'm not complaining lol |
Strider
03.15.12 | can't stand Skullcandy, they're nice to look and and have good sound, but they break really easily.
I've been using Sennheiser a lot so wanted to switch things up a bit. My last headphones were and AKG
though (they're pretty awesome stuff too) |

03.15.12 | Bose all the way |

If you're only listening to music on 15$ headphones, you're missing out tbh. |
ncguitar
03.15.12 | Philips SHL9560, I think they're $30-35 in USA. They're not expensive and they fucking slay. |
xevman
03.15.12 | beats are cruise control for cool.

Tyler.
03.15.12 | i've had 2 pairs of bose headphones and they've both fucking broke on me. so now i'm using a cheap skullcandy pair that isn't too bad |
taylormemer
03.15.12 | acad is correct, you're paying top dollar for headphones only to play lossy mp3s through them. Totally and utterly pointless.
If you're playing FLAC or Wav or whatever, then fine. Otherwise, no. |
Sirob
03.15.12 | grow up.
buy some real headphones.
like klipsch image ones (fuck yea scream).
theyre incredible.
youre welcome. |

03.15.12 | congratulations, you have earned 100 wigger points! |
SCREAM!
03.15.12 | Sirob knows where it's at
also: "acad is correct, you're paying top dollar for headphones only to play lossy mp3s through them. Totally and utterly pointless."
I listen to mp3s (I try to get 320kps as much as I can) and I still noticed a huge difference between my old headphones (40$ range) and the new ones so I have to say I disagree with you on that. |

auberginedreams
03.15.12 | i have bose headphones and they are much better. |
Deviant.
03.15.12 | Listened to the really expensive pair at a store setup, they were pretty average |
bakkermaarten007
03.15.12 | Waste of money. Should have bought some Klipsch instead. |

this is why you think the shitty metalcore you listen to has good production. |
Storm In A Teacup
03.15.12 | I got the skullcandys and they are pretty good but especially durable. |
sniper
03.15.12 | i use audiotechnica ath-a700s at home and at work for excellent sound, and then i settle for those bose earbuds everyone has for when i can't carry around giant headphones. |
Janeeet
03.15.12 | I have AKG's and they are really good and don't break easily because it has two chords, not one! |
Strider
03.16.12 | AKG is cool, had one that is around 100 euros on the regular market, and I get them around 50 |
