Headphones / Headsets Discussion

16747 Views 727 Posts Social
A general discussion on those devices we put on our heads to drown out the nagging...I mean for better sound quality :P

I've been using the SteelSeries Siberia V2's steelseries.com/... for ages now and I'll be hanging on to them because they do a good job.
I have a pair of Bluetooth headphones, but the iPod Video doesn't broadcast a Bluetooth signal.

save yourself pretty much 20 bucks, and get it from her mp4nation.net/...
Boghut from the webstie before, slow shipping but great prices. they have better quality ones as well too


I've seen a few of the higher end ones, but essentially this one is just right. Most of them get bigger and heavier and would just be a pain in the ass if you want it to be portable. Some of them are the size of a friggin iPod itself haha


if you check out mp4nation, youll see they have the exact same fiio amp, just 20 bucks cheaper. thats what i was going on about [Derp]
Deal Xtreme has it for $17

wow, this thing is cheap. deal extreme is the place to go then
DX will take ages to get it to you though
Just got my Corsair HS1A... God damn they are bloody good!

Leave my old set for dead. Beautiful high, mids and lows, i can hear things in songs i have never heard before.

For $75 they get my approval.

yeah took 3 weeks to a month for my E1 to arrive, DX is only really good if you can afford to wait.
Ordered beats by dr dre :/
[Facepalm]
Beats are awesome - the sound quality is deep and pure

Yes beats have good hardware, but they're also made for the mainstream consumer.

And there are a fk load of fakes going around.

To me they sound a bit worse like audio technicha M50's.
I thought beats were over priced bullshit
But then i tried them
and i tried them again
and i was liek
bitches love beats

I just bought a $50 pair of Sennheisser earphones.

They're OK. Bit too big for my ears so they hurt.

I can buy Audio Technica M50's for half that price, with the same quality, UN AMPLIFIED. As I said, it's aimed at mainstream consumers. Like apple. And Dyson.

i love dysons, but your right, they are quite expensive. for the average consumer beats are good, they look good, sound good and the price seems right to them
I want to get M50's [Shifty] But then I also want to get AD900's, MS-Pro's, ESW9's, DT880's and SRH940's so thats not really saying a great deal. Wouldn't mind W5000's either but they're a tad out of my price range :'@
you spent a grand on an amp, may as well spend that much on some phones.
Speaking of headphone amps, I found a friggin valve amp on ebay new for $20 [WTF]

www.ebay.com.au/...



So hard to resist buying X_X

Hey Guys just got the Tritton Ax Pro's they are awsome
Damn, I want one of those valve headphone amps so bad, can't justify it though, my hifi amp has a headphone socket on the front and does fine.

Yeah I definitely wouldn't mind that little bastard it looks sweet! Don't really have a use for it though, it wouldn't power my AKG's :( Only other decent cans I have are my AD700's but they don't really need much more than the Xonar. Speaking of, I need to get that outta my rig for Ren this weekend. FFFFFFFFFUUUUU why does my case have to be so big and heavy! I have to lift it out of its stand :*O

I'll have to try mounting that 140mm Prolimatech I've had sitting there...
