Worst headphones you've ever bought

[alucard177]

Skullcandy Hesh Metallica. Poor sound quality, terrible materials and build quality. And after only 10-15 minutes of use they start to hurt a lot. Horrible headphones.

For the 10 people that buy them, I'm pretty sure their answer would be this:

Headrush Boom's (Radioshack brand), tons of muddy bass, lasted like a month before something gave out. Lucky me meant 6 pairs to break!

I cannot comprehend...what.

I cannot comprehend...what.

That's what I thought at first as well ~.~
I thought it was a joke until I saw the ebay auctions >.>

Definitely not LCD-2, HD650, UM3X, SE530, Fostex T50RP, AD700 ..............................  maybe IE8.

they are Deadmouse's headphones. they aren't for cats lol. But it's a stupid viral marketing ploy to attract the 4chaner's and those late to the lolcat party.

Sony MDR-V500(DJ)
 
Simultaneously dull and shrill and grainy, muddy as hell. Blender full of kazoos.
 
I didn't like my Grado SR60s either, but I could tell why some people like them ("3-D"-sounding mid-range). Therefore, the Sonys are the worst, because I can't tell why anyone would like them. They just have nothing going for them,
 
I've spent hours with both of these trying different EQ settings but it's no use.

 +1 for the Sony MDR-V500's. Mine broke right after the 1 year warranty on a 3 foot drop. WEAKSAUCE>SONY.

I love how over 50% of the replies mention gaming headsets!
And I'm going to add to that:
Fatal1ty gaming headset - not the USB version.

I just laugh when I see athletes with Beats headphones on. There has to be a promotional fee involved. All these guys could post in this tread after hearing a decent set of headphones. Sennheiser, Grado, Ultrasone, AKG, beyerdynamic, etc., someone needs to start sending out some free headsets to these dudes so their followers can start checking out great sounding headphones. Because once they hear the difference, no way they are going back.

My first ever head phones was rubbish.
 
The Digitech HD-400...
 
 

 

[halcyon]

Beyerdynamic DT-1350. Reasons:
 
 - horrible fit, not comfortable to wear for long durations
 - no low-freq bass to speak of on my head, regardless off headband bending or positioning
 - very harsh sound signature
 - overpriced, and as such win the worst headphone price, although there have been others with even worse sound quality.

They are dropping $10K into the hands of the ASPCA from the eBay auctions... Prolly not a ploy eh?
