Got a pair of Bose AE2 headphones for my birthday an then learned that Bose is overpriced. So, I am looking for a new pair of headphones. I just use an iPod touch and Walkman for my music. I listen several hours a day primarily just at home but in the car also. It's almost all music. Enough so...

id like to be able to enjoy music while i refinish/sand floors. (i do about 15 a year with my work)   its a pretty noisy job, would active noise canceling headphones work or do i need to diy/custom build myself a pair of really isolating headphones? 

Hello all, hopefully someone can help me with my predicament. I am looking for specific noise cancellation headphones for my farther, but unfortunately i can't seem to find suitable ones.  He works away and has to travel in a c-17 globemaster which i believe inside is about 86 dB and i'm...

Edit: I realized most members here haven't gotten to try the new D600 yet. Please feel free to replace D600 with the D2000 for your opinions :) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Hey everyone I'm new to high end headphones (most of my current high perfomance...

Hello guys,    I want to invest in a nice pair of decent mid-level headphones. I'm most likely going for the Senn Momentums, but I just wanted to know if i should go for the Bose QC15 for just a little bit more money.   I know the Bose has active noise canceling and will require them to be...

Hi everyone, I'm new here.   I'm planning on buying my first headphones ever within the next few weeks. Up until this point, I've been using the earbuds that came with my ipod to listen to music. :( I'm only starting to realize how much I've missed out on all these years...   Anyways...

Well i have literally been doing anything possible to find the correct headphone because im really nervous about spending my money and then not liking the headphone so i was wondering i have these options (i listen to dubstep, rock, pop, hip hop, alternative, reggae, R&B, classical almost all...

Sometimes Gizmodo says cool things about headphones. Sometimes they don't. (Make that most of the time.)   This is the opening line for an article about the new Fanny Wang 3001 NC headphones they "reviewed."   "If we've learned anything from Beats by Dre, it's that adding a little bit of...

I wanted to know should I invest in getting a new pair of headphone for my travel vacation next month. I'm Currently using my 1964T for portable use. Then at home I have my ultrasone pro 900, and Brainwavz HM5. I was looking to get another pair for when im on the plane and outside. Which would...

Hi Everyone,   So I'm trying to buy a pair of headphones that can have a max cost of around $370 or so and have no idea which ones to get. To be honest I want to use them for more daily use. For those of you wondering why I might spend so much on daily use headphones its because I have the...

Okay guys, so recently I bought myself the Sennheiser HD518 for listening purposes, and my dad was really confused, as to why I would buy "expensive" cans. He has a pair of Bose QC15, that he uses exclusively for noise cancellation on his weekly airplane trips. I wanted to prove to him that I...

Hey yall. This is my first post. I used opinions of people on this site to make my recent decision to purchase the Senn MM 550 NC headphones so I felt obligated to post my own review now that I have them out of the box. I travel fairly frequently and I needed a decent NC headphone. Eventhough...

So I won a pair of Bose QC15s yesterday, and I was set to "regift" them to someone. Of course, I couldn't resist coming here to read reviews first. Now I'm torn.... I don't want to open these and hate them, because then I'd feel tacky giving them away as a gift. But on the other hand, I could...

Now I know most on these forums say that Bose is overpriced, and in some instances, I agree. I must admit though,  I'm really loving the sound of these cans.  It's known that the noise canceling is the best in the business, but I honestly didn't think I would enjoy the sound this much. It's not...

I have been looking for the right headphone for quite some time and I'm abusing the leniency of Best Buys return policy.  I am looking for an over ear headphone.  I would like Noise Canceling (but I would like them to work without a battery if it runs out or its not on), a single removable 3.5...

Hello, I'm new here so I apologize if this is in the wrong section. I am looking for a pair of active noise cancelling headphones. I don't know much about headphones, but I'm not completely uneducated and I am willing to learn. A couple of headphones that I have been looking at are the Bose...

Ended up with the dt 770 pro 80 :) 

I am completely new to this headphone frenzy. I am planning on a VERY LONG TRIP to Australia next month so I started checking local stores for sound-isolating headphones. I eliminated all except two. I know some will say they are completely different and it's like comparing apples to oranges...

Every day I work I spend 1.5 hours on a bus and at work I sometimes wear headphones as well.   I'm looking for something with a good combination of noise cancellation, comfort, and audio quality.  I listen to rock, everything from instrumental to metal to acoustic.. but rock nonetheless...

Greetings!   I've been doing what is probably an unhealthy amount of research over the last few weeks, but am at an impasse.   I have a budget of $250 (plus a small headphone amp if needed, if not, I might be able to stretch on the phones). I'm looking for a set of closed over the ear...

Ok so don't shoot me...   I'm not not well versed with portable hi-fi equipment and technology. I have a small predicament and am not sure how to proceed...   My piece of crap Dr. Dre StudioBeats that I bought  from a colleague for $160 broke down and I plan on replacing them with a...

Hey guys,   Im pretty new to the forums, and have looked over several reviews on over the ear headphones. Unfortunatly there is really no way to tell which one will be best for you unless you hear them in person.   Right now I have been on my Bose Tri-port headphones that are pretty much...

First of all, I'm new to high quality headpones and recently bought the Audio Technica ATH-M50 as my first pair based on the high reviews I've seen. I REALLY enjoyed the sound quality on these headphones but experienced one really bad problem...comfort. They start hurting my head within minutes...

Hello all,   I am currently in the market for over the ear headphones that offer the best sound isolation possible at ~$250-300. I want the sound quality to be good (it doesn't have to be perfect), but I'm really looking for something that's comfortable and really dampens outside noise. I...

I'm looking to upgrade my HT headphones.  I have some Sennheiser wireless headphones, but am planning to go with wired headphones. I would appreciate any recommendations.  Thanks!
