Can't decide which headphones to buy, 120$max
Apr 13, 2012 at 4:04 AM Post #17 of 23
Just checked the price again, and your right, Lowest price is 100€. Seeing the rather cheap price of the Creative and Koss, how do they match up against the more expensive models within my pricerange?

Thanks for all the suggestions so far!
I've decided to go for closed headphones instead of looking for both open and closed, simply because i then have the possibility to travel with them, and don't bother other people while listening. Also i have raised my pricerange up to 130$.  
 
I narrowed the choices down to these pairs, which are within pricerange: 
 
Ultrasone HFI-450
Sony MDR-V6 (Can't seem to find them in any online shops in my country, could they be named differently?
Sennheiser HD 380 pro
M-audio q40 / Within my pricerange, but everyone suggests getting beyer pads to put on, which then exceeds my pricelimit. It is a must for owning these?
 
Now i am also considering the Audio Technica M50s, and Ultrasone HFI-580, which is over my budget, but i am willing to wait a bit and save up, if there really is a large difference in soundquality by spending a little more, and getting the M50s?
 
also, forgot to mention that i am going to be using these without an amp.

I would suggest the Koss DJ100, they work well with all the genres you listen to, and they are great for gaming. They have great portability too and only cost $67 on amazon

 And to make them more comfortable just add some M50 Earpads

I have the hfi580's and would recommend them as well. Been using them for 2 years and still satisfied with them. The DJ1's are the same as the 580's and are $116 here:
