Hey y'all. Ive been looking around for headphones that have good sound quality,bass, for all types of music. R&B, hip hop, jazz, classical.
 
I am looking not only for sound quality, but material quality, and appearance. 
 
I have a couple of AKG phones that are decent at the moment such as the 242, and the 171. The 701 and 702 are a lil above my price range though.
 
Imputs? Thanksss!

How about the Ultrasone HFi-680?  It has both looks and a very dynamic sound signature.

Ultrasone HFI-580's.

Theyre allright. I kind of want something different than the usual black over ear headphone look. Sony,  Denon, and Untrasone have the same look. The AKG, Beats, or Sennheiser 598 are different. I want something like those.
 
Thoughts?

yeah go for 598.  Forget Beats tho.  No one like beats here.

Something different? Phiaton MS 400

Then in that case how about Phiaton's MS 300?  It's a pretty sleek looking headphone with a nice and smooth bassy overall sound presentation, it's an on-ear design instead of an over-ear.

Tyoung8, you beat me to it and those are some nice pics as well.

 

[tyoung8]

yeah, think a pic with a nice girl makes the headphone look nicer.  

 
I think tho the OP is looking at something more... eye catching like...
 

 

  or...

LOL!  I think that last one would be great listen during the week of Halloween.

I'm really partial to AudioTechnica AD700's - the base might be a bit anemic, but it's very tight. Plus the cups are HUGE and PURPLE! People I know say they look pretty cool, and they're comfy as all get out. Save $100 and take your girlfriend out to dinner!

Skullcandy...if you're interested only on looks. 
 
Or, why not get any headphone and do some paint job? 

 

[jhtang2]

HAHAHA that works too. Kinda like a car eh??

AKG 701s are amazing. Sound quality, appearance, and price. Thought I wouldn't like the semi-openness but they fill in the ambience. PErfect.
