Hi all,
 
I started with an Ipod Classic and used the included earphones, then I upgraded to a set of Sony MDR-V150's. This was a big (but cheap) improvement, but eventually they broke and I got myself some nice Sony MDR-XB300's.
I have had these for a couple of months now and really like the sound of them.
 
When I bought the XB300's I actually wanted the Koss UR55 headphones (but couldn't find them) and it seems they will be available at Amazon for a decent price.
 
So here is the big question, should I replace my XB300's with them??
I've read some reviews of the UR55's and they are pretty good, but I also want them because they look much better than the Xb300's.
 
When I put on the XB300's I look very 'stupid'

I'm fifteen and don't want to look stupid at school...
 
- So, is the sound better or worse than the XB300?
- Do they sound better ore worse than the Sennheiser HD435? (My brother has these.)
- Do they fit nice, and don't they 'pop' out on your head? (I can't find a picture with someone wearing them.)
- Are there other headphones you would recommend?
 
BTW; I listen to dubstep and use them to play games...
 
Thanks,

No replies?
 
Isn't there anyone that has used both the Koss UR55 and MDR-XB300 or Sennheiser HD435 ??
 
If the Koss UR55's is better I'm going to buy one tomorrow, so please help me...
 
Greetings,
