Hello, I am looking for drumming headphones but as well as to listen to music/movies.
(Basically, good isolation and sound)
 
Which headphones should I get? If I get the Dr.Dre Studios then I will get them refurbished so it'll be cheaper.
 
Headphones 1:)

Beats Studio by Dr. Dre - Hi-Def Noise-Canceling Over-Ear Headphones

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001DD55OE/sr=1-1/qid=1306110973/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&qid=1306110973&sr=1-1&seller=
[I Like the Style, and how there are many excellent reviews!] PS: DOES ANYBODY KNOW THE dB FOR THESE?
 
 
Headphones 2:)

Beyerdynamic DT 770 M Monitoring Headphones for Drummers

http://www.amazon.com/Beyerdynamic-770-Monitoring-Headphones-Drummers/dp/B000F4KWQI
[I like how the isolation is good, and meant for drumming. ALTHOUGH SOME REVIEWS ON OTHER WEBSITES SAY THE ISOLATION ISN'T GOOD AT ALL! :/]
 
 
 
 

Beyerdynamic DT 770-PRO Headphones

http://www.amazon.com/beyerdynamic-DT770-PRO-250-ohm/dp/B0006NL5SM
[I Like the Reviews, and how they are good all based headphones.]
 
 
WHICH HEADPHONES SHOULD I CHOOSE? OR SUGGEST ME OTHERS! I WANT A 150$-225$ PRICE RANGE! THANKS!

DT770M are kind of poopy, but the only thing on the list that actually isolates YOU from outside sound (blocks sound from the outside coming in), so I voted for them. Without that criteria I would have voted for the DT770-PRO.

yes, the M's do isolate well, but sound is crap
 
I use DT770/80 with drumming, I can definitely recommend them for that usage

Does anybody know any other alternative headphones. I want good isolation and quality, for around same price range. I greatly appreciate it, as I need to know by tonight

Do you need it for acoustical drumming or electrical drumming?
 
If acoustical, maybe Sennheiser HD-25's are a bit more isolating (but I don't know that for sure, didn't directly compare that).
If it's for with an e-kit, nothing in that price range will beat DT770/80 pro. That will produce your bass kick and tom sound like you never heard it before. It's a very big difference with cheap headphones; your kits will sound way better.

X2 ^
Definitely the DT770's are the drummer's headphone (i'm not a drummer, but i've seen people using them)

Acoustic Drumming! I never ever use Electrical drumming. Also, is it awful to listen to music with them? Like what would you rate the Audio? Because I will be listening to music a lot, so should I get the Pro instead of the M?

My vote is for the HD-25 as well. They are absolutely amazing for music, and they clamp/isolate very well. And considering their size, arguably the best portable headphone ever made.

So what did you get?
 
DT770 pro  over M, definitely, because music is done way better by the pro version.
 
Since it's for acoustical drumming, maybe HD-25 would be a good choice too, great allrounder with VERY good isolation.
 
Still think both are good choices, as long as you don't go for the M
