what do you think of them? also, I know these are completely different headphones, but in terms of sound, how do the sennheiser px100 compare?

soooo..... sound quality.... worth $50?

i saw them in my college bookstore for $49.99, and anyways I was planning on using about half of the money on my card (you know like flexbux or w/e they are at other schools) for books, but my grandparents took care of it this semester for me as a bday present. so anyways i have about $500 or so...

bump

they don't seem to be mentioned much here. I'm looking for a good, detailed and crisp closed headphone for use with my computer in my dorm for around $60. I checked these out at Guitar center and they seemed to have a pretty good sound, I listened to some jazz, and electronica (which the treble...

what about the audio-technica ath-m40fs? i was able to listen to them and they sounded quite good. The only thing, are they efficient, and do they work well with an ipod? i listened at guitar center and the guy hooked it up to a computer in a monitoring studio so I'm not sure if I heard it...

I've been looking for a little while now at different closed headphones in the $50 area. I'm kind of lost, I really don't know what to get. I really want a good even, yet punchy when it needs to be sound with lots of clarity. My range of genres is very broad, as I listen to everything from...

how bout the others

the sennheiser open headphones, such as the eh350, or the hd457, or the grado sr60? i'm asking, since it seems to me that its a lot harder to find closed headphones that match the sound quality of these at these prices, and I really don't need that much isolation, I just don't want the sound...

well, are the eh350s any less open than the grados? Like, I hear the grados are REALLY open. The eh350s have what look like circular earpads. Does that help at all in keeping my music from being heard? I don't care as much about isolation, I just don't want everyone to hear a tinny version of my...

the eh350's are open? I got the impression that they are closed. they look like a closed headphone. i'll check the others out though.

also, as a comparison, I owned the cx300 IEMs by sennheiser. how do these 2 compare to them?

So after some extensive research, I've narrowed my headphones down to the Sennheiser EH350 and the Grado SR60. (Anything else you could recommend around this pricerange would be good) Lets get the less important stuff out of the way first. Stylewise, I like them both for different reasons...

o yeah, and for comparison, how do all of these sound compared to the bose triports? I ask, since they are the only "expensive" closed headphones I've listened to, since they have them to listen to at BestBuy. I like those a lot, but they're just too expensive

in terms of sound quality, how do the HD280s compare with the EH250s, EH150s, and SR60's?

hmmm, well its between that and possibly the SR60's, which although I'd prefer closed headphones, they are for dorm listening, so its not that big of a deal, and from the reviews I'm reading on the sound quality it seems worth it. What do you guys think? I wanted something portable, but I'm...

i also saw that the EH350 is only $15 more on amazon. Is it worth it for those? All in all, how would these compare to something like the grado sr60s, in terms of sound

i also saw the EH250. how is this one? i like the style and headroom seems to think its a pretty good headphone. I listen to just about everything, especialy classical, jazz, funk, and rock, so I want something that isn't going to be good for only one thing. I'm looking for good clarity...

I'm looking at stuff like sennheiser HD205 and stuff around that price range or less. How are those, and what else is out there?

i'm using it with my laptop mostly

Ok, so I'm looking for some nice headphones to use with my laptop in my dorm and, while I'd prefer closed headphones, it seems its pretty hard to find what I'm looking for within my budget. soooooo..... These are supposedly the two best looking headphones for the pricerange I want. I'd just...

if you listen to anything too loud your ears will hurt and you'll get earwax

i have a bestbuy giftcard with $26 so I've been looking for something to get, and I need some decent portable closed headphones. The thing is, they only have crappy brands, and then they have $500 shures, so the headphone thing may not work out. However, they also have skullcandy brand...

you say I can't find good sound around that price, however I bought the Sennheiser cx300's for around there and they are great, I love their sound (although its definitely goten worse as they wear and tear from the gym) I haven't really shopped for decent closed headphones before so I guess...

its a possibiltiy, since I do want to replace my sennheiser IEMs, but I really want to get some closed headphones that aren't too big, something that I can be isolated but still kind of hear outside noise. Plus, I want something comfortable and easy to put on since I'd wear them a lot while...
