After purchasing the logitech Z5500 I no longer has the cash for expensive headpones.

But thats ok now I can watch movies in real 5.1 with THX certified speakers.
Sounds like the real cinema to so I am happy with my speakers.

But they kinda such in the music department. I mean the sub is awesome and powerful but I do not think they hold up well enough for music.

So I need some cheap headphones that has better bass than this sub and that can deliver music much better.

I hear the senn HD201 us great perhaps there is something better?
My choices are also limited as I want to purchase a optical cable in the same place so all can come in the same packaging so international shipping can be reduced.

So hit me people best headphones for around $20 or less.

Thats a very limiting budget you have there...probably the HD201 is your only option...your next option may be IEMs

In terms of IEMs, I'd recommend the EP-630 by Creative. They're normally $30, but are $22 at Newegg.

The HD201 won't give you the bass you're wanting. The HD202 will and it's selling on eBay for under $20 shipped.

KSC75s-- bass might be a bit bloated but it doesn't get much better for under $20

KSC75,best choice under 20$,that's my opinion.

koss ur29. monstrous bass. the radio shack version is being cleared out in store for 9.50
jvc hag770. absolutely humongous bass but its 24$ plus shipping
the jvc hag101 will give good bass when eq'd and costs 9.99

I hate the HD201's. Consider the JBL 410's. Odd choice, a little fragile, but great sound that can be found cheap online.

 

[effectic]

hmm these are some interesting choices here I am doing a little bit of research here

Researching all that you guys have recommended.

I am also thinking if buying this optical cable for my speaker to play movies in DTS will be worth it. Or just use the analogue cable you know.

what about the JVC HA-RX500 Full Size Headphone?

I am buying the headphone and optical cable at the same time.

And I want to buy them on buy.com or shipped and sold by amazon.

You can get the RX500 for $25 shipped from Amazon if you buy something else for $1. So your budget is now $25? Edit: Or, you could buy this JVC look a like for $25 shipped from Amazon if you buy something else for $6.

Yes the optical cable for the Z5500 is $9 on Amazon. But thats ok.

So I can get both same place in same packaging this is very nice.

The JVC you recommended is it good?

How many times is this thread going to be repeated over and over again by the same OP? The question has been discussed several times in past few weeks alone.

What makes you ask that? I did not recommend the JVC. I haven't used any JVC headphones. The less expensive on Amazon looks a lot like the RX500. Maybe it's the RX300? I'm guessing with a little modding, one of those JVCs would sound OK.

Ok I shall buy the JVC thanks.
