[Noise]

I am looking for the coolest/slickest looking headphones. I would prefer headphones with see through parts on it, but anything is good as long as it looks amazing. Does anyone have any recommendations?

[edit]: cans with wood on them would also be cool

Hahahaha I couldn't stop laughing at the link you posted. Seriously though you need to read This article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audiophile

1. STAX Omega II (If not the best looking headphone, it definetly has the coolest name)
2. Sennheiser HE60 "Baby Orpheus"
3. Sennheiser HE90 "Orpheus"
4. Audio-Technica ATH-L3000G
5. Sony MDR-SA5000/Qualia 010
6. STAX Lambda Series (Honestly, I think they look pretty cool...)

ES7s! Best looking headphone = Grado HP1000s or Koss ProtaPro. I like the vintage/retro look.

AKG K-1000. Am I the only one who thinks they look great? There's nothing else like them, period.

They sound pretty good, too.

JECKLIN FLOATS FTW!!!

In actuality, I'd have to say the AT woody's, Grado HP's, almost all of Larry at Headphile's work, and the Orpheus.

Uncle Erik, I too think the K1000's look really cool. Granted, I probably wouldn't pull what NeilPeart did, but I do think they look and sound amazing.

I must say that the Orpheus is a gorgeous headphone, but the darth beyers can be pretty too.

K701 is pretty crazy, esp. in the color scheme

1. I said coolest/slickest looking.

2. I really could care less about your "feeling."

3. I have come upon an immortal truth as a DJ. Most headphones give you enough to do your job and have fun, but the looks are very important if you want to actually get a job as a DJ if you don't have much hype around your name.

Your equipment must look great, you can't just sit there doing what you do with minimal movement in your body as your spinning the music, everything adds up. And I am looking for some kiky new cool/slick looking headphones to add a little more edge, because in the club environment its not just music, but also looks.

[edit]: So far I like the K 701, Koss Porta Pro, and Sony MDR-SA5000 DJ, in that order. Keep the cool looking ones coming!
