I want to get my girlfriend a nice pair of headphones for Christmas. However, unlike me, she's not an audiophile. She does encourage me, though. Which is awesome, haha!   So what I'm looking for is a full-sized, closed-backed headphone that sounds good directly out of a laptop or iPhone...

Hey everyone, I recently read that there is a new version of the Skullcandy Aviator that comes in a white, cardboard box instead of the clear plastic one. Apparently they have a detachable cable, and is available at Best Buy for the Brown and Gold colored version.   Anyone have any concrete...

So my wifey bought me the Crossfades for xmas and I have been trying to decide if I have a bad pair or not... You see the bass is real nice, but damn, it's at the expense of pretty much everything else. Thye sound really "dark and muffled" to me. I had to download an music EQ app just to make...

Ok so I was jonesing to buy something during the Black Friday madness but between not seeing anything I really wanted and not being able to afford or get what I did want (darn Amazon and it's Canadian unfriendly attitude!!). So I was walking through Futureshop today and saw a headphone that...

"Oh my god!" " several expletives, pained groans suggesting incredulity". followed by checking to see if it was Stereophile 4.1.2013.

.....at my local Target store.  I could not believe it!!!  Brand new in box with the plastic wrap still in place.  They were even cheaper than the Navigators $75 on clearance.  They are black with chrome trim, removable cable, and a leather zip up carry bag.  The original price was 149.99, but...

Feel free to share which headphones you like the look of best!   I did a search of a similar thread and it showed a 61 page thread of people posting their favorite-looking headphones... in response to a guy who asked, himself, what the best-looking headphones were. In 2011. And the thread...

On my job, I am on the phone off and on about 50% of the day.  For the majority of these calls, I use a company provided iPhone 5.  Most of the time, I just use one of several pairs of headphones I own that have an inline mic (Monster DNA, Skullcandy Aviator, Monoprice 8323), but it is summer...

New here, I recently picked up a pair of SkullCandy Aviators (I'm familiar with the debate; they were on sale for 60 bucks) and was wondering if it would be worth throwing a portable amp, like a e11 or e17, in front of them.  Will use them with an Ipod classic exclusively.  I listen to a little...

I need a good headphone for listening to rock (think bands like the Arctic Monkeys, black keys, Strokes, Shins, Kooks, Two Door Cinema club, etc). I listen to other genres such as jazz, metal, indie, indie pop, the occasional classical, dubstep, techno, and electronica (I already have headphones...

My little bro plans on getting the ue4000 or the skullcandy aviator headphones. Mostly skullcandy sucks but the aviators are the first actually good ones believe it or not lol. They're both around 100 bucks and If anyone here has listened to both I'd love to hear ur comparison. I just bought the...

I picked up a pair of aviators on sale for 75 bucks.  I love the feel of the pads, making these a near perfect headphone for long plane rides.  I'm usually watching media rather than listening critically, so closed back and long term comfort are really all that matters to me.   The one thing...

Hey head-fiers I've been thinking recently, seen as it's Christmas loads of people have been asking me about headphone recommendations, it's been fun and I'm trying to get as many people as possible to get nice neutral ones and then put fiio e6 on bass boost, well it got me thinking what are...

Hi head-fiers, a friend of mine is looking for headphones and went to me (her local headphone geek) and is looking for cans that look good, good for pop and most other genres, under 100 pounds sound amazing (she didn't ask for that but I'd cringe if they weren't) and won't deafen her (she's...

long story short, I can only buy one of these (I can't buy from a different store... long story)   akg q460 ot akg k181 dj or Skullcandy Aviato, (only one of these! they will be free for me, so that is my only option)   i was thinking about one of  the akg   music-  I listen to all...

I am looking for something for my ipod/iphone and fashion isn't of up-most importance. Leakage doesn't really matter. I had the V6s many moons ago and loved them. Tried the Aviator at a Target the other day and was suprised at how good they sounded. And their warranty is unbeatable. Lifetime...

Hey I had AKG K 450 and I thing it's really good headphones, but I'm going to buy a new one. Can you help me with choosing new headphones for listening rock music? I looked up for Marshall Major (I love that style), Skullcandy Aviator and Urbanears Zinken (someone told me it sounds very...

So first off, Hi xD (My 1st post xD)   Anyway, my skdy problem. i have about six pairs of skullcandy headphones...and five of them are broken. The wires are shot even though there's no wear and tear on (most) of them.   Today my the cord on my aviators just started sputtering out...

I've always been a fan of underdogs and I've always had a fetish for the Bose headphones. I know, its kinky and it is bad, but I just can't help myself. I may need an intervention (and would welcome your arguments why I'm completely biased and wrong about this). I would call myself a mid-fi'er...

Ive had a pair of Pioneer SE-M290s for 2 years and figured that i need a pair of headphones which are less bulky and provide better noise isolation and less noise leak.  So far, ive looked into the Audio Technica M-50s, Fanny Wang 2000s, Shure SRJ750DJs, and Skullcandy Aviators.  Which one...

My friend wants a headphone that sounds good, but doesn't want a headphone that looks weird. I am assuming that he will not buy a DAC.   Anyone got a suggestion? I have HD 25-1 II, and it's very uncomfortable to me. Something comfortable would be nice, since he said he wants to listen...

Hey  was wondering how the Roc Nation Aviators sound stacks up to the M50s, anyone know?
