itchy84 Posted April 15, 2014 Report Posted April 15, 2014 I was hoping somebody could help me out here. Currently I use Phillips SHE9503/10 in-ear earphones. They get the job done, and I felt as though I got a bargain with them. Im definitely happy with those. However my listening experience has lessened of late. I find I take too long putting the buds in my ears, and a lot of times when turn my head the wires would catch on my jacket button, making me start the process of fitting the buds back in my ears. And sometimes I feel them sliding out so I have to constantly adjust. All the while my song is being played and im not listening to it properly. Anyway, because of all this I was thinking about replacing them with headphones. At first I thought wireless because im sick of my earphones wires catching on something. But then I thought, well, its headphones, even if they catch on something, my headphones will still be on my head, they wont get yanked out like earphones would. So I could go either way (also do wired headphones generally produce better sound than wireless? Or does it not matter?). So the type of headphone im looking for. My current earphones do the job, so something that gives me that sound without pushing them in to my ears. I have a pretty varied genre. I like my dance/electro like daft punk/calvin harris etc. But then I like going back to listen to my old indie and rock music. I also like classical music like pianos and violins - instrumental stuff. It can be very varied. Basically im looking for something that’s able to handle different instruments from all the different types of genres and play it clearly and loud so I can hear each instrument without distortion. But I do like my base, I quite like it when im listening to music with a good base that pumps in to my ears. I would mostly use it with my ipod, out and about, on the train, the streets, anywhere. But always from my ipod. Ive tried out some headphones – I quite like the Beats headphones, especially the Executive, Solo and Mixr versions. Though I found them quite pricey. My budget would be £150 max, reluctantly but willing to go a little more if the headphones are worth it. I know I like closed back over-ears, I like the music in my head, and I wouldn’t want any noise leakage or hear any ambient sound or outside noise. Ive seen some reviews and i see the m50s have popped up more than once and I think I liked the sound of those, and the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro Closed Back Studio Headphones. Im not sure what to look for in terms of specifications either, impedndance, sound pressure level, sensitivity, frequency, max input, drivers, power capacity etc. I have no idea about those. But I like what I have, so anything better would be great. If somebody could suggest a few headphones to check out that would be great! Thanks!

Voltron Posted April 15, 2014 Report Posted April 15, 2014 Something's missing. What do you do with the felt circles? And how can I make one of those cool multi-color cable wraps so I can be sure to break the shit wires in my earbuds?
blessingx Posted April 15, 2014 Report Posted April 15, 2014 I was going to leave one step out - MacGyver-style - to protect the world, but fuck it. No idea on nail polish or wrap.

The Jecklin Floats work really well if your favorite instrument is the skin flute... itchy. Edited April 16, 2014 by Wmcmanus
Dusty Chalk Posted April 16, 2014 Report Posted April 16, 2014 Dammit, for a second I thought she was gluing googly eyes on the outside of her earmuffs...

jboehle Posted April 16, 2014 Report Posted April 16, 2014 Come on, the braided, multi-colored cotton around the cable really accentuates the highs, brings the mids forward, and the bass, OMG the BASS, it's so tight and punchy...
Dusty Chalk Posted April 16, 2014 Report Posted April 16, 2014 ...OMG the BASS... Sarcasm check? This should only ever be posted ironically...
CarlSeibert Posted April 16, 2014 Report Posted April 16, 2014 I thought she was making a secret recording device out of a bunny. The nail polish has got to go.
Dusty Chalk Posted April 16, 2014 Report Posted April 16, 2014 Something's missing. What do you do with the felt circles? I think she's using them to hold the earbuds centered, and to provide a color-free baffle.
wink Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 To be color-free, they would have to be black.......
The Monkey Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 To the OP, ignore these idiots, I will help you. (Shame on you guys.) First, in the genesis hole of the toad three times of course to be finding out expeditiously basset hounds. Then, on fourth and one go for it. Plus, you never know when you might need avocado and fish eyes lady fingers. But most of all, and I can't stress this enough, the bass will become electrical sockets and oopsy daisies if you don't. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to upside down cake on the flip side. 5
nopants Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 damn you helped him so well even I upside down caked 1

I can agree with everything except my bass has never been electrical sockets, oopsy daisies maybe but never electrical sockets. Try and at least get you facts straight.

Voltron Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 You haven't seen Dinny lately, but he has lost a lot of weight and isn't at all hippy. 2
Torpedo Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 I adore this place, you guys are all so helpful. I love my bass electrical sockets. And my treble hard nipples.
