Lol I have a pair of those..

Different one every day. Need to get another two for the weekends.

The official headphones of 4chan(seems like it)

>>6689527
I wear these. In public.

real niggas know whats up

>>6689665
>Beats

>>6689665
>owning beats
>owning 2 pairs of beats

I hate using the autistic argument, but I seriously hate seeing people cruising with these massive headsets on.

It just makes me feel like they are so shut in, and shut off from what is going on around them. It is depressing.

>>6689665
You seriously have some horrible trendwear in this pile.

>>6689670
What? I thought the Panasonic's were still being pushed on here the most?

>>6689665
>all those marketed pieces of shit
dat image is 9/10 master piece, brilliant

>>6689678
Used to have three. Sold the Solo HD because they were shit.

At home? Sennheiser HD428s and Audio Technica M50s.
On the go? Monoprice 9927 (pic related), and I used to have Sennheiser PX100-iii, but they broke and repairing them is fucking impossible since it includes a microphone wire and fuck that shit's small

>>6689693
This is /fa/, they're fashion headphones. Or does that confuse you?

>>6689702
They're as fashionable as Pyrex.
Just because they're hyped, overpriced, and total worthless pieces of shit doesn't mean they're fashionable, or does that confuse you?

>>6689693
It's a toss up. M50s are also talked about all over all boards too.

>>6689702
>thinking /fa/ cares about that plebshit

Beats and those other headphones you have are the equivalent to mallbrand when it comes to fashion.

>>6689665
Saw this on /mu/

>all these Beats, Razer, and Skullcandy

You can get headphones that look and sound good, no need to go for that overmarketed shit.

>>6689721
>>all these Beats, Razer, and Skullcandy
It's only one dude's pic and OP, everyone else actually picked decent headphones.

>>6689702
Are you the beats guy? because if so, you are dead wrong.

>>6689704
I had a sick pair of Sennheiser buds, then some asshole stole them. So I have my two backup Sennheisers. But am now in the dilemma of wanting new buds, but see no reason for them because I've got two pairs that work perfectly fine.

They were all gifts by the way.

>>6689713
Interesting.

To be honest, I don't really travel much from /fa/ anymore outside /p/ and /trv/. So my info might be out of date also.

>>6689730
Took me ten minutes to find the picture.

>>6689734
Yeah, from /g/ to /mu/ to anywhere else that bring up headphones, M50s took over.

>then some asshole stole them.
I almost had to deal with that, I had my backpack's main pocket open and my headphones were there and saw a fucking nig reach for them before I turned around out of 6th sense shit. He dipped.
Also my PX100-iii's were a gift too, feels nice.

>>6689739
Oh hey, this one has much more variety then most headphone guides, neat.

>>6689754
Some guy robbed my macbook like that awhile ago.

I found him and got it back really quick though.

My headset + Ipod though was gone, gone. The headsets were the IE 7s from Sennheiser. My backups are a pair of CX 300s, and a pair of really cheap sennheiser buds I picked up the day my IE 7s were robbed from HMV, I think they ran 20$.

Really have the urge to buy a new solid set again, but I feel weird doing it with two good enough pairs sitting about.

B&W P5s when I am out of my house, HD 800s when I am listening to swans at home

>>6689830
i swear to god you get robbed every week or s/t

>>6689852
that should tell you more than you ever need to know about him

>>6689852
Why do you think that?

I think my ipod and the laptop(which I got back, so it didn't really get stolen) are the only things outside of a skateboard when I was like 14 that have ever been lifted from me.

>>6689837
>mad props

>>6689837
Really nice

also, digging that cp sneaker as a piece of furniture

I have these. I love them but I'd never wear them out the house, they're massive.

>>6689852

lol hi turnleft, pls post a fit

\\\: /\ )

>>6690119

Sorry, thought I was on /g/ and you posted there.

This was the first thread and I didn't realize this was /fa/

>>6690094
I could make up some bs excuse about why it's ther but honestly I put it up there for the picture

>>6690187

Good call

\\\: /\ )

My problem with headphones is that everybody else can hear my music. I'm on the bus a lot, and earbuds make it easier to keep the music to myself. What's my best option here? Preferably under 100$.

Lol i just wear the headphones that came w/ my iphone #lmao

>>6690246
For one thing, closed headphones. I would also recommend some nice IEMs (In Ear Monitors).

To burn my dread.

>>6689677
Those headphones are amazing. Steel series.

>>6690316
>implying you can find these
I'm so mad I didn't grab them a few years ago for 50 when Amazon still had them, and on sale too.

cool b8 m8
saved for future trolling

>>6690360
I have them. One of the hinges is a bit loose now and one of the rubber bits is starting to tear.

Beyerdynamic DT-770's.
God they're comfortable

>>6690396
damn these are five stars on amazon, 126 all star ratings and only like 6 1 star ratings, do you have the 250 ohms or the 80 ohms..and what is ohms?


http://www.amazon.com/Beyerdynamic-770-PRO-250-ohms/dp/B0006NL5SM/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

http://www.amazon.com/Beyerdynamic-770-PRO-80-ohms/dp/B0016MNAAI

anyway might get these shits

Sennheiser.

I have a pair of HD558s. They changed every single piece of music I have listened to for the better.

>>6690392
>calling them earphones

>>6690414

Beyerdynamic is great. Without getting too technical a headphone with 250 Ohms will need a dedicated amplifier to get it loud enough. An 80 Ohm headphone won't need it.

Getting somewhat technical: Ohms is a measure of resistance. Resistance to electrical current.

>>6690426
>being this ignorant

filtered btw ;)
goodbye forever

>>6690426

What >>6690392 means is that the shitty iphone earbuds can barely be called headphones due to their shitty frequency response.

>>6690455
oh ok, I'll look into the 80 ohm then, if I want to do the amp thing I'd rather save up for some out of this world headphones anyway, but these seem perfect for casual headphones thanks so much for letting me find out about them

>>6690414
The headphones sound fantastic, fit well, and are overall pretty awesome.
>>6690455
This guy summed up the difference as well as I could. I just wish I'd known that before I bought them. That being said, my 250 ohms sound fine with everything I've plugged them into

>>6690463

Most out of this world headphones require a dedicated amp anyway. They all have high ohms. Like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-9969-HD-650-Headphones/dp/B00018MSNI..

300 Ohms input impedance.

Been going full volume daily for a year and 3 months. They're starting to fall apart though, so I may have to get some new headphones.
I need some quality headphones for skating, so that means flexible cord, any suggestions?

OP here- thanks to all for dumping so much knowledge that I have been missing my entire life. I just got back from a restaurant. But question- am I retarded or are all skullcandy earbuds/headphones trash? Like in my experience they would break every month or so, but they're so cheap and accessible I never bothered searching for a new brands.

>>6690487
>implying ohms means shit
yeah its good to hve it but you should focus on how it deals with the treble and the bass
mids are usually fine

>>6690470

Even 300 ohm head phones can be plugged in without an external amp and sound fine.

But it's like a having a good pair of headphones, once you have a good amp you can't go back.

I bought the parts and made the amp that some engineer with wayyyy too much time one his hands decided to make:

Search "O2 audio amp nwavguy."

It's seriously audio nirvana.

>>6690497
They're fashion first, but they appeal to hot topic kids. They also sell cheap cause they're made poorly.


I have a pair for running and such. They exist to get abused though.

>>6690509
best combination of fashion + quality? I'm reading the guides now, but most are from /g/ and you know what that means...

>>6690497
buy rockit sounds r50
best of the best if u like iem

>>6690516
haha, will consider. $120 though. Gotta save up :'(

>>6690536
wow it's fucking nothing im fucking south american and even i can afford that

>>6690508

"Ohms" or more specifically impedance of a pair of headphones varies across your hearing range 0 - 20000 Hz.

Having a high impedance headphones minimizes electrical distortion.

Treble, bass, and mids are all part of the 0 - 20000 Hz range and totally depend the impedance.

Fucking kill yourself you disgusting peasant.

>>6689670
Agreed

>>6690549
yeah but the guy doesn't wanna buy a fucking amp

>>6690570

No shit, that's why an 80 ohm pair is fine, but if you really wanted something truly amazing and technical >>6690487

>>6690516
r50s are hella good but nowhere near best of the best, people spend thousands on this shit

>>6690607
yeah except best of the best of the best are a shitload of money
120 is fucking cheap for that beast

>>6690545
SORRY JUST BLEW $1200 ON ENTRY LEVEL BOOTS

Bowers & Wilkins C5 for fun.
Monster Turbine Pro Copper for in-ear monitoring.
Beyerdynamic DT-770 for producing in silence/on the road and reverberation of signals while producing.
Sennheiser HD-25/Pioneer HDJ 2000 for DJing.

these.

>>6689670
same here
does anyone have experience with portable amps (like FiiO stuff) and the m50s?
