Recommend Some High Quality Budget Headphones for me Brehs

[69 others]

I currently have a Sony MDR-7506 Professional which i paid about $85 for and i'm very satisfied with it but i'm looking for something a little bit more lightweight/low profile for work. I'm willing spend $100 tops.

try to grab a pair of AudioTechnica M50(s) on sale. they drop to about 100 pretty often. They sound great, but if you are trying to stunt look elsewhere

Anybody have the skull candy hesh 2.0's? They sounded pretty decent in target but I've heard mixed things about skull candy headphones long term.

I'd jump on the m50s for $105 at Amazon

Sennheiser HD555 Or the 558. These headphones are amazing. i have had the HD555 for 3 years now not a single problem. They are open design though everyone will hear them. They are very neutral and so damn comfortable to wear.

Can't speak on the Audio Technicas but have heard good things about them.

If you want to get the M50s for just casual listening make sure you get the coiled cable

Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO
Shure 440 or 840
or Senniheiser 280 or 380

These are better than the M50s imo though.

I agree, im selling my 50s to get the dt 770's

i also had a pair of shure 940's, the model higher than those...they were incredible


oh one other thing threadstarter,

Alot of the headphones we are recommending.....they are going to sound better than anything u have ever heard...

but you must pay attention to the impedance on the headphones...its going to be listed as Ohms...


Higher Ohm levels will require an amp...


It sounds like this will be a kind of on the go situation for you....the dt 770 has a 32 ohm version which should be good for a ipod/android.

the m50's have a 38 ohm rating whch is fine.


anything past...ummmm.....idk i'd say 50 ohms would require an amp so u have to take that into consideration.

yea for my commute and at the office when i want to zone out so nothing too fancy and big (don't want to look like i'm dj'ing) so that's why i said something low profile

I'm a big fan of Klipsch (I also have the S4's (earbuds), and I LOVE these headphones. And at $88, the price is right.
