Quote: Those are pretty damn slick in terms of features and styling, not bad on price, either. Definitely going to consider those with the Sennheiser PX200-II and look up reviews for both.   I'm also thinking I might just by myself a real cheap pair right now and lend them to her just...

Quote:   Looks like I can snag the Sennheiser PX200-II for around $60, so they're a consideration. Would like something a bit cheaper though in a similar style.

Quote: They're going to be a gift. Also, I'd rather select them based on how well they suit the requirements I've laid out than how good they look.

Yeah, V-Modas are a bit more than I'd like to spend for something she may wind up not using. Also, she'd just be upset with me if she found out what they cost.

Hey everyone, I'm looking to pick up some headphones for my girlfriend as a gift. She's no audiophile (knows pretty much nothing about it), but I have started replacing her music collection with higher quality copies, and I'd like to introduce her to the world of higher-quality sound. She's used...

Thanks for the replies. Sounds like I really need to give those HD25s a listen. Those VModas look like they might be pretty good as well, although the review that says they get uncomfortable after a short period worries me a bit - I want something that can comfortably stay on my head for a seven...

I'll have to look into those Senns again, the one thing I read about them said that they were really uncomfortable, but your opinion seems to differ. As for the bass, that does worry me a bit - my current audio setup is a bit bass heavy. I tend to lean more towards "fun" sound than perfect...

Hey, everyone. I've come here before for help finding IEMs and around-ear headphones before and haven't been steered wrong before, so I was hoping you guys could help me with my first more expensive purchase. I'm looking for a pair of at least somewhat portable headphones that I can use both at...

Well, I got them and gave them a preliminary listen with bits and pieces of songs. My initial reaction was mixed, they did sound good, but I can't say I was blown away or truly impressed. Perhaps I just need time to adjust. However, I did play "Clouds Over California" by DevilDriver and was...

Alright guys, I think I'm gonna go for the NuForce NE-7M. The remote and mic for my iPhone are definitely helping to tip the scale in their favor and I worry that I've become a bit too accustomed to the bass-heavy balance of my CX300s to make a jump to the more properly balanced iM-590. I think...

Hey, everyone, I recently had my Sennheiser CX-300 headphones stolen and am looking for a new set of IEMs to take their place. I've become very adjusted to the isolation and fit of IEMs over the four years or so I had the Sennheisers, so I think I'll stick with IEMs as my choice of portable...
