Headphones? Headphones? Headphones?

[chantheman]

shure e2c. they are being cleared out at a couple of stores, and you might grab a pair on clearance.

where are these being clearanced out at?

I back just about anything Grado.

Not only do almost all of their products sound excellent, but they also come with great customer service, and they're super-duper affordable.

I remember when I first started doing the headphone thing, I started with a pair of 60s or 80s, but the male jack got real wiggly about 2 years in and I started losing sound in the right can.

E-mailed Grado Labs, got an e-mail back saying it wasn't a big deal (even though my phones were out of warranty), and they hooked me up with a brand new pair in about 5 days.

I swear by my grado sr60s.

^ Good choices.

I need some beaters for when I go out, without a seal so I can hear other shit. I think I might go with some V-modas earbuds. My other pair of headphones are some Audio-Technicas from Audiocubes, pretty nice but sometimes I don't feel like carrying them around haha. I have a pair of Grado SR60s too. But, they broke on me, I think they're sitting in my room somewhere - the wire needs to get replaced somehow because it only works if I move the cord in a certain direction.

Can't go wrong with either.

True. I have the ER6i for over 2 years and have no problems with them. I use them every day with my ipod.

[soleeay]

I used to have the e2c's and they treated me very well. Only problem was the close encounters with various motor vehicles when riding my bike, due to my inability to hear any outside noise. So for the ultimate noise cancellation, go foam over rubber. I find that it is a lot more comfortable also. Just be careful

Be wary of head-fi.org.... I now have 5 headphones and a couple of amps

[habia]

I would recommend upping your budget and getting the Etymotic ER4P if you ever think you might be slightly unsatisfied with these ones down the road. Spending an extra 100 now will mean that you won't have to worry about upgrading unless you start getting interested in UE-11s or something (1000 USD).

I have not had a chance to hear the ER6i, but find my ER4P to be incredibly better than the Shure E2c or E3, and I prefer them by a decent margin to the shure E4.

Happy listening whichever path you take.

[CoMp1eX]

The Apple in-ears are the best. No competition.

same here, been using them with my ipod but ive had a cable defect 3 times. i got new headphones delivered after i sent my broken ones in. theres something wrong with the cable now but i havent bothered contacting etymotic. im eyeing the shure e530 pth now.

[innit]

expensive headphones plugged into ipods and mp3 players.....

[DJI]

portable: sennheiser cx-300 are great sounding, cheap in ear headphones that block out most of the background noise while travelling.

home: audio technica a900, hands down one of the best closed headphones for the price.

[californiakid]

anything by GRADO is awesome in my book, from the inexpensive sr60's to the crazy priced ones, theses are great

[cuddlysheep]

anyone recommend good pair of earbud headphones good for monitoring like dj/studio use. i was looking at american audio eb 700-900 series anyone have any info on those,tried on a pair?

+1 for PMX70 for the gym

i went through all different kinds of headphones for the gym, but the pmx70 is hands down the best.

[nf one]

i have sennheiser hd201s, and for 18.99 ive never heard anything better and im not afraid to throw up on them

tried on senn px100s, koss porta pros and grado sr60s and theyre also all solid

got the girlfriend some ultimate ears super.fi 3s and for a little more tose are kickin too

[SoleSketKC]

grado sr60s. reasonable and reliable

I can't decide whether or not to wait for the Westone 3's or buy some brand new Shure SE530's for $275 from a friend.

[Le-Dobermann]

Try sony mdr-700, i have them, many dj's have them.. well they rock

[unmetro]

the more money you spend the more subjective the choices get...if you like your music, spend the extra money on a quality pair...personally I have/endorse the Grado SR80 (best sound for the buck...it'll revolutionize the way you listen to music) and the Audio Technica (AT) ATH-ESW9 (as the grado's open air design doesn't allow for considerate public play).

[KicksNotBombs]

Whats a good pair of Headphones for Djing and a good pair of earphones for my Ipod. 200ish for the Headphones and 100ish for the earphones.

DJ phones:

Equation Audio RP-21

AKG K181DJ

Beyer DT-770 (w/ leather pads)

Ultrasone DJ1 Pro

iPod:

I'd personally save the cash since the iPod would be your source, I'm sure you'd be just as happy with some $15 JVC Marshmallows.

I think I'm going to go with these...old school...ugly...cheap...sound great.

If you can up your budget a bit SR-80's or Alessandro MS-1's are better for your money.

Its all very subjective. I preferred the 60's to the 80's, and I'm hard on my headphones because I don't take care of them.

for your uses, full size headphones are better imo. if you can stray away from earbuds, take a look at sony mdr-v6. they're perfect for monitoring.
