Recommendation on good headphones

[pHEnomIC]

I want to get some good audio headphones to use in the gym for xmas. Something betwen 100 and 200 bucks, not over. I don't want earbuds unless you can think of some superb ear buds. I prefer around the ear ones.

I want something with excellent audio quality, volume, and bass.

My friend let me burrow his bose triport headphones. They are about a baseline of what I want to get, i just hate bose. Their diamond box setups suck and for some reason I don't like that brand even though these headphones are pretty good. Can someone offer me some suggestions?

Skullcandy hesh headphones are good, and only cost 40-50ish

These aren't great for the gym, but I love them for everywhere else: http://www.circuitcity.com/ccd/produ...&om_keycode=58.

walgreens has some black ones that only run like $15.

great for working out.

i bump the **** out of them.

i like the sony earbuds. i got sme for 35 dollars. quality is awesome.

ebay

[Mayhem Monkey]

beats by dre are sick as **** but are like $350

[pHEnomIC]

Those cheap ones just aren't going to cut it. I should clarify that I want some high end headphones. Once I heard these bose and listened to em daily for a few weeks, its hard to go back. I tried the skullcandy ones too and they werent even close.

Then just buy the bose. They are probly the best quality for the price.

IMO i use the ipod headphones for the gym. They never fall out and are good quality. I hated paying $40 for them though, it's such a ripoff.

Apple also just came out with the new "in ears" headphones. I read some reviews and they were very positive. Strong bass and all-around good quality sound. They run for ~$70.

Are you fuking joking? Ipod headphones have terrible sound quality and never stay in your ear. You're the only person to have said something good about ipod headphones.

I have skullcandy ones

who the f*ck would pay 100-200 bucks for headphones? really it's not worth that and you look like a tool with massive ones on at the gym lol

I could never justify spending that much for headphones that won't last me more then a few months and I don't notice that big of a difference

and how can you run with the big around the ear headphones anyways? they'd be useless for cardio

[zhouaznbrass]

dont go for bose...its incredibly overpriced.

sennheiser or grado's are much better for a cheaper price.
if i were u i would grab a pair of grado sr-60's. they are amazing for their price tag

Audio-Technica ATH-CM3 is also a great set of headphones...only around 60 bucks.

[jaadgo]

Dude i feel you on this one. Ive purchased over 6 pairs of earphones and they all suck ass. My problem was during cardio they'd slip out cuz of the running and all the sweat. ive tried apple earphones, apple earphones, philips, sony, etc. I was going to turn to over the ear ones myself until i stumbed on these...

dude these are awesome. theyre a little big and the cord is kinda long, but they stay in cuz of that whole twist to fit thing. basically the little nub above the earphone allows for a tighter fit. its been 2 months w these, so far so good. i mean theyre only 12 bucks so why not lol

Can't go wrong with Bose. They are not too overpriced. You get what you pay for. So for Bose you get loads - the quality is amazing!

shure e2c i can sell you some brah

shure e2c i can sell you some brah

Thank you, jesus.

Everyone else in this thread knows nothing of headphones.

OP, look at some Shures, Etymotics, or Ultimate ears for in-ear phones. Those are the top brands for audiophile buds. For cans...there are tons of good brands. But I wouldn't really want to work out with cans.

Do NOT buy Bose, Skullcandy, or whatever other crap people were recommending.

[BIG-BAD-JOHN]

Sennheiser px100

[Konzales]

I rock these...

They're pretty nice I suppose. They hang over your ear and then in so the weight of the cord hangs on your ear and doesn't tug the bud out when running and jogging.

a good pair would be sony ericson ones great and dont fall out but for quality i would go for the ones i have for my prada phone those earphones block out everything but the sweet music

[pHEnomIC]

Are you kidding me? sony? pfft

[DatsunKing1]

any thing sony, ranging from $10-$15 they last FOREVER. I had mine for 11 months one time, used em' continously, and sweating and what not. work great if you take care of them.
