• Decent, comfortable cheap headphones?
    11 replies, posted
I had a $40 of headphones that I picked up from JB HI-FI.. The sound was alright from what I can tell (My dad's a hi-fi fanatic so I can define what good sound is and what poor sound is). They recently broke (Stood on them :frown:) So I'm looking for a new cheap set of headphones. My issue with them and the other pair of ~$30 headphone's is after 40 or so minutes my ears feel like they want to bleed :/ So can you suggest some headphones under say $60AU with decent sound?

:frown: Whoops.
mostly biased advice based on brand names go for Sennheiser HD201, dunno what it is in dollars but have a look on amazon or something greatest cheap headphones you can buy unless you really require quality and are a little greedy, you have to spend more for that extra comfort and more open sound experience

Not sure if you want in-ears but I have these : [url]http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDR-XB40EX-13-5mm-Sensitivity-Earbuds/dp/B001RB24U0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1272762926&sr=8-1[/url] And I really love them, they have impressive bass but it doesn't blot out everything else and the highs still sound good. Pretty comfortable too, I've never had to take them off because they hurt.
