Headphone recommendation

[J.S Bach Jr.]

Hi,

Can somebody recommend a good headphone under $100 for classical music?

Thanks.

[Tyll Hertsens]

Koss Porta Pro.

[Voltron]

Bach Jr. said classical music, so I would go with the Sporta Pro.

HD800. 

 

Why buy headphones for $100 that will be worthless the moment you open the box when you could own the best (current production) headphones in the world for $100? 

Buy used HD800 for $1000. In 3-5 years sell them for $900. 

Maybe they cost you $150 once you figure in shipping costs.

[J.S Bach Jr.]

Thanks everyone for the help.

 

That HD800 is out of my budget. Even if I wanted I couldn't afford it.

I think I'll go with one of those two recommended by Tyll Hertsens and Voltron. Which of them is better?

[Grahame]

As a person? And by what metric?, lover? Fighter? Lawyer? Drinker?

[grawk]

I really like Tyll, but Voltron scares the shit out of me, so he's better.

[Tyll Hertsens]

Indeed.  Sporta-Pro.  My bad.

Wow, everyone is so cuddly today.

For classical music listening.

Sorry, english is not my native language. I still struggle to speak it.

I'll buy the Sporta-pro then. Thanks.

This.

 

It's like I'm in bizarro Head Case.

[grawk]

it's because tyll was up early, and beat everyone to the beating.

[Voltron]

I, for one, think Tyll got his licks in just fine.  Or maybe I'm just out of it.

Excellent choice, but any baby orpheus for under $100 will not include drivers, or ear pads, or headband pad, or ear cups, or ear cup forks, or cable.  But the included headband is pretty nice either way.

[grawk]

This is head case. I disregarded price.

[Grand Enigma]

This is head case. I disregarded price.

Relative or absolute?

I like Ari's justification... Look at it as a security deposit

[blessingx]

On the cuddly side,

Maybe Ety MC5.

Peace.

I recommend the AKG K1000 which is under $100 if you mug somebody prior to the purchase.

I thought you had a terrible low voltage accident and died or something!

 

You are not allowed to stay away so long!!!

[Fitz]

I am dead. BooOOOoooOoooo.

[cetoole]

I recommend buying sr007 and jh16 for $100.

[Fitz]

Shut up Colin.
