Good morning, I have been reading through may threads here and doing many google searches and I still haven't been able to come up w/ a conclusion as to which headphones would be best for me.
At first, I was looking at a pair of bose tri on ear headphones on Ebay. Gladly, I lost that bidding, as I hadn't done any research yet on headphones to find out about lolbose.
Since then, I've been looking at several pair of audio technica and couldn't really find the comparisons I wanted or if there was something better that could fit my budget.
I'm mainly looking for the best bang for my buck in the $100-150 range. I haven't seen many if any comparisons from noise canceling vs non noise canceling (not many planes, but do ride a bike w/ frequent wind ect, and yes I know the dangers before anyone warns me).
I wanted to know how these compared with each other
audio technica ath-ad700 (About 90ish on ebay)
audio technica ath-a700 (havne't looked at pricing)
Audio technica ATH-ANC7 (Noise canceling) (about 100 as well)
Audio technica m50s (I found a new pair in box on ebay for about 100)
Or if there would be anything else in which would work better for me.
I have 2 main uses for my need for headphones
I am constantly on my laptop and my uncle's wife is always complaining about how I have to turn it down (so I've been using cheap headphones for years). I do some gaming, but I listen to music and watch youtube far more often.
My other use is that I have an 8-mile bike ride to school and 8 miles from school, 4 days a week, in which would royally suck w/o music.
I really want to get rid of these 10 dollar pieces of crap I bought from Sony, that I find myself having to replace once every 3-6 months (I've gone through 2-4 pair of the same headphone every year for the past 6 years now, but I usually get a new pair, swap in the old, return then for a refund so I'm not out too much money), but I'm sure I'll notice a difference w/ anything coming from those.
Even though I'll be riding, earbuds have never worked for me, I can never ge tthem to stay in, so I'm not interested in any of those.
Which of my list would be best for my purposes, or if you could think of anything else in my price range that may be best for me? Thanks for much in advance for the help.
