Or maybe you have another recommendation, you also said you were going to a pair of Gr06's yourself, have you got any yet do you know if they're actually good ?

Music preference: Trance,House,Progressive,Dance,Drum & Bass, basicly EDM

Kind of bummed they aren't back yet. I've been checking. They're so popular that it'd be ridiculous if they didn't come back soon!

But, anyway, alternatives. The Brainwavz M2 (Or Visang R03, Brainwavz just rebranded these), Soundmagic E10, and Dunu DN-11 Ares are all good alternatives, but unfortuantely not as good. There's also the Xeport 5010 ($15). They perform far better than their price implies.

Allright well im probably going to wait for the GR06's, hopefully frogbeats has them in stock soon, also if you find out that some other place starts selling them that deliver to the UK please do inform me as i would really appreciate that. What im thinking of doing is trying to buy some XePort 5010's , however im not sure that the official website delivers to the UK and im not aware of any where else i can get them from. Once again if you are aware of were i could get them if i cant get them from the site. I dont rreally want to look into it now as it is 5am and im going to sleep however i will look into it tommorow. The way i see it is that the XePort 5010 would be a nice pair of spear earphones as the last thing i want to be doing is using some shitttty apple earphones:P

thanks

Do you absolutely need noise cancellation? If you don't go on flights constantly, it's not needed and would actually be more of a con because of the very audible hiss the NC has.

The AKG K271 is surprisingly good with metal and rock, not so much rap though. The Sony Z1000 would work quite well, as would the Audio Technica ES10 (better option actually), but pricing for both is all over the place.

Have you tried any other headphones in the same price range as the Astros other than Beats and Bose?
