I need to solder some shit before I can use them again, though. Right now I'm using some shitty buds while I'm at home for break.

I like them. Pretty neutral sound, massive sound stage, and inexpensive. Pretty alright isolation for semi-open headphones, too.

Denon AH-D310 Headphones

Super inexpensive and sound fantastic. I like them better than most $100+ headphones I've had in the past. Apparently they're really fragile but I've had mine for over a year and have had no problems at all. Really comfortable too.

but i'm the type of person who will keep using them until i get used to it and they don't bother me, and i can use them for hours on end.
i did hear that putting the pads in the wash with softener made them a lot better, but i was too worried about it causing problems like stretching it to test it out. also no one ever mentioned if they let it air dry or used a dryer.

other than comfort the grados are pretty great

They're alright. Very (maybe a little too) strong bass, ok mids, good highs. Clarity is overall good, and soundstage is decent for a closed headphone. I prefer the sound of my Porta Pros over the Sony most of the time, but the XB500 makes a solid gaming headphone.

Funny thing about all this is the reason I decided to get better headphones is because of my friend's Sennheiser earphones, which are now valued at about $30 maybe, but fucking solid compared to what I've had.

I got some ath m50s on black friday for 100, now that they've had about 60 hours of break in time they're amazing. No sound leaks and solid construction.

What he just said>>42934097 They're really good.

Question to that anon, does burning these in really make that big of a difference?

I thought burning in any headset would improve the quality. No?

Of course, but I'm wondering if its that large of an improvement from their factory sound.

Hoping you get some replies, I decided to spring the extra $20 and get the 900's. Seemed like a good consensus in the reviews, no chronic issues. Some guy mentioned these are good for modding, as well, which I know nothing about but sounds like it might be interesting to get into.

got these yesterday
Is it okay? never had any headphones before and these were quite cheap

I have them, it's solid for the price. Semi-Open was a big difference to me when I first got them, having only used closed. Bass is somewhat laid back, but not bad.

sennheiser HD 558

bought them 1 year ago after properly getting into music 3 years prior. Everything I've bought since to use out and about has felt lacklustre in comparison.

I also have some of those crappy RZA Chambers but I got them for 80% off so I'm satisfied

Basically these but with another cord.

I should upgrade in the future, but I'll happily use these for now.

Don't really know how I feel about them. They sound amazing but...I have been getting sore necks. I think it's cause they are too heavy.

Skullcandy Crusher atm.
I got em as a gift so eh

I like them expecially since I can adjust the bass and it requires 1 AA for the amp which should lasts 40 hours.

I'm eventually gonna get sennheisers when I climb out of debt.

Got the M50's in red for Christmas. Sound quality is pretty good. Pretty much an all around headphone for me. Cant handle classical very well though, sound stage is a bit lacking.

m50s here also

they're not perfect but they are nearly indestructable and that's a plus (broken 2 pairs of hd595s cause they're made of cheapass materials)

Sennheisers are lovely.
I have a pair of in-ears I wear when I'm out and about, and they've lasted me for absolutely ages and the sound clarity and bass is fantastic
Even better considering I only spent £30 on them

>> No.42938814

>>42938775
yeah they're fucking durable. Works pretty well portable too without an amp. They blast music out of an ipod really loudly.

>> No.42938820

>>42932498
I have those, for the price they have a really nice clarity to them.
The CX 175 sennheisers are really nice in ears, and they're only about £25
