The bass isn't crazy heavy, it's fine for me, but it doesn't really thump. They hurt for the first 8 hours of wearing them. They look kinda cheap and old too......and people can hear your music when you listen to them.



Well that last part I don't care about, people should hear what I'm listening to. Don't like that part about em hurting tho, but if its only for ashort time, that's not bad. As long as the sound quality is nice, I may give em a try.

Just scooped these up

Since Grados have been mentioned let me recommend the Alessandro MS-1's. From what I've read theyre based off the SR-125 but priced in the SR-80 range.The "2009" model (Equivalent to the "i" in terms of Grado) is only about 110 dollars. Had I not received the Audio Technica ADH700s as agift (Great but absolutely HUGE) I would've definitely bought the MS-1.

I gotta come in here say these are some good� headphones. They got bass especially with theright EQ settings/ special effects in your mp3 player. I got these with a Cowon O2 (w/ the special EQ settings + BBE sound effects) + Fiio E5 headphoneamplifier =

.

Play this song with this setup... � =

The headphones look dope too.. heres what it looks like in real life..

I just copped some hesh skullcandies in black/green... I'm staring to think they were a waste of money cuz I also got some smaller headphones that blowthem out the water and provide better noise cancellation but I love having HUGJ headphones lol, I'd like to make my skullcandies black so they wont look sorediculous

 

[divinetecknique]

I could've told you that man...

BOSE is good stuff, but NOT worth the money. They can market though. They can advertise. They are established. People will continue to buy Bose for as long asthey can, because you can buy BOSE and know you are getting quality stuff... it's just that for the same amount of money you can get something much better.

Beats by Dr. Dre are just hyped up mainstream #*+%. For 300 dollars I could get you some of the BEST headphones you will ever put on your head and still havesome left over...maybe

 

[lemonade41]

Beats by Dre = JL audio of the headphone world? AMIRITE?

 

[mangudai954]

Figuring out what headphones I want to cop is proving to be a little more confusing than I thought. Seems like you have to make a compromise somewhere ifyou're not spending big money.

 

[biggie62]

@ everyone still buying this over-advertised crap. Save yourself some money and get some Sennheisers which have 10x the quality. Oh wait nvm, 99.9%of NT is more worried about how they look in overpriced items rather than buying something because it's good. Continue buying your overrated garbage.

 

[ptrakarn23]

so for $300, what is the BEST you could get?

please tell me...

i personally think all the beats are just overhyped...

im rockin over the ear bose triports at the moment and they working real fine for me

Grado SR225 or 325 but that's a little out of reach imo. You don't really need any amplifiers with these also as they are relatively easy to power (the#1 reason why I bought them). Lossless quality music + any Grado headphones = heaven.
