Headphones

Postby cityfan31 » Apr 28th, '13, 10:50

I've decided I'm going to spend some of my first pay check from my job on some headphones.

I sort of decided on Beats By Dre but I don't really know if they are value for money.

Anyone got any? I also prefer earphones so I can use them in the gym and they're more portable, are they any good?

I agree... Dre's are fucking nice but 50's kind of topped them. Both sets will do anyway.

Don't bother with Beats by Dre to be honest. Anyone who is an expert at headphones and electronics will tell you that the quality is not up to par for the price, and you are essentially just paying for the look and the brand name.

I personally, I use the Audio Technica ATH-M50 headphones (they're about 120-150) and I love them so much. I'd recommend you try them out.

You just post pictures on facebook of you wearing them :y:



Personally i wouldnt get beats, they are good for sure but they are a lot of money for their performance. Some sennheisers or something would be better, not sure of specific headphones but something like that.

Or buy some ibeats and save yourself some money.

I love my Skullcandy :wub:

I would never get Beats, wayyyy too fucking pricey. There are way better quality headphones for much cheaper. Your mostly paying for the name (I'm not hating, Beats do sound great) and not audio.

So if you want people to say "cool head phones bra!" and great audio, get beats

If you don't want to sell a kidney and care about audio over brand new, get something else
