I use Skullcandy and I like them, but god damn if I wear them for over 40 minutes or something they really start to hurt my ears.
[QUOTE=Akayz;21555990][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrPTDU40hO4[/media][/QUOTE] Great song.
I absolutely adore my Sennheiser HD448s. [img]http://www.vaasanykkosradio.fi/store/images/senn-hd-448.jpg[/img] Not too flashy, and they sound fantastic for a budget pair.
[QUOTE=SA Spyder;21553430]Haha, the trolling. How I missed it since you guys shat on that other headphones thread. ediT making a giant fool out of himself by assuming that nothing but his opinion matters, and Odellus generally trolling people left and right regardless of topic. Thank Christ I don't take you idiots seriously.[/QUOTE] yeah when someone disagrees with you they're obviously trolling [editline]08:43PM[/editline] reminds me of phone

i use [img]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/411CxNKwwOL._SS500_.jpg[/img] because they were free
[QUOTE=Tiowa;21581324]I wish inner ears would fit in my ears. Everyone uses them, even my family. Argh[/QUOTE] you just have the wrong size/type sleeves get the foam types, they always fit or get custom molds if you got $$$
[QUOTE=id3z;21583800]i use [img]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/411CxNKwwOL._SS500_.jpg[/img] because they were free[/QUOTE] Explain how to get them free ;)
Not a fan of in ear headphones.. Better sound than ipod style ones but im against jamming things next to your ear drums to slowly deafen yourself
I have the exact same headphones as you OP and I get exactly the same shite. Admittedly a little more bass would have been nice but overall they are absolutely brilliant. I love them to bits and they are great on journeys as you can't hear whiney little cunts nor engine noise, just music.
[QUOTE=Akayz;21591259]Not a fan of in ear headphones.. Better sound than ipod style ones but im against jamming things next to your ear drums to slowly deafen yourself[/QUOTE] they isolate background noise so you actually can listen to smaller volumes. and the driver is in the same place as with regular earbuds
[QUOTE=YWNJack;21591077]Explain how to get them free ;)[/QUOTE] they were on clubbing.com, not sure if they still are. you play bullshit flash games for points, pick a prize and it gets sent to you
Bose headphones suck imo
I have some kinda GameCom headset and it's amazing. I'm pretty experienced with sound quality and shit but this one is comfortable, great headset for gaming, awesome for music. With a great headset for gaming I mean that you can hear people's steps very well in, for example, CS or MW2 and that is very usable. Also yeah it's a good headset for music and the bass is awesome when you use the Vista / W7 bassboost and winamps equalizer set to some awesome preset. [img]http://imod.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gamecom-headset.jpg[/img] It's possible to put the mic back inside the headset and that's pretty helpful too.
[QUOTE=evilking1;21591815]they isolate background noise so you actually can listen to smaller volumes. and the driver is in the same place as with regular earbuds[/QUOTE] Jamming tubes in your ears to hear the sound more easily is a bit drastic compared to over ear ones, they are pretty awkward to get them into a comfortable position too
[QUOTE=Akayz;21593264]Jamming tubes in your ears to hear the sound more easily is a bit drastic compared to over ear ones, they are pretty awkward to get them into a comfortable position too[/QUOTE] not really if you even bother to pick proper sleeves
[QUOTE=evilking1;21593358]not really if you even bother to pick proper sleeves[/QUOTE] Ive used inear headphones before, got em free with a phone... Didnt enjoy the experience though no other type of inear headphone would convince me that theyre any better fair enough if you prefer them then thats ok Ipod headphones i prefer as the simple practical ones to use in the gym

[QUOTE=evilking1;21595077]yes this is just what i am talking about[/QUOTE] to be valid, when listening to music on the go, you really want something clean and really simplistic that suits your way of life some might say that over ear headphones are not practical, but when I am not using it, it folds neatly in its special case, the agony of trying to untangle earphones spending 5-10 minutes wasting good listening time.......thats not practical I check the sticky thread and I rarely see any CLEAN CUT headphones.... its mostly about looking flash and colourful when you just look like a berk anyway
[QUOTE=Akayz;21607737] I check the sticky thread and I rarely see any CLEAN CUT headphones.... its mostly about looking flash and colourful when you just look like a berk anyway[/QUOTE] sound quality doesn't really translate well over the images
Got some g16

[QUOTE=evilking1;21607807]oh cool a special case, does it come with a fanny pack too so you don't need a backpack to carry it[/QUOTE] fuck a fanny pack...... stick em wherever the hell you want might as well just wear em around your neck for practicality :hurr:
[QUOTE=Tiowa;21581324]I wish inner ears would fit in my ears. Everyone uses them, even my family. Argh[/QUOTE] I have the same problem except with ear buds, they are uncomfortable to the point of being painful. Inner ear ones are fine. It's a shame, I would like to be able to use the volume control on my iPod Touch headphones without buying the £61 inner ear headphones Apple sell.

Since I have been using crappy cheap headsets through out my life I found that my new Steel Series headset is a vast improvement. I was able to hear sounds that my past headsets couldn't capture. Another cool thing is that it has a 3 part break down for easy storage. The best part was that I got it while it was on sale for $44. [IMG]http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/1986/12578254.png[/IMG]
