$350 is kind of criminal, but Dakmart's $213 price refurbished would be okay. They sound relaxing, like a Bose headphone. I still think the QC15 has better NC and a more relaxing sound, which I think is the type of sound an NC headphone should have. In this case, Bose wins.

If things work out right, I might have an NC headphone to compare them with directly soon. ;)

Hey r00t, could you help me find some good headphones other than Beats, i already have them.

Budget: around 100 ( $160 )

Type of music: Drum and bass Dubstep and a bit of hip hop. I like my bass

Over ear/on ear dont really matter. Not in ear

Closed

Id listen to them on my phone mainly and sometimes my laptop

Portability is a must, i like the idea that my Beats fold
Must be able to take a drop or two, im quite clumsy.
Could you find one that is loud but keeps its quality and bass?

Cheers

I'm guessing you're in the UK. If you can stretch 20 quid, these are your best option: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

They aren't horrible. They're the first Monster headphones I'd actually get. But otherwise there's the Audio Technica ES7 for much cheaper.

Heyo. Back again for advice on some headsets.

I'm currently using Sennheiser PC360's connected to the Astro MixAmp and they're great. I was wondering if anyone has tried the Beyerdynamic MMX 300? I'm getting really mixed reviews from searching around whether or not it's worth the extra money to upgrade. Open to others suggestions as well if they're in the same tier. Thanks

They're okay. They have somewhat grainy treble, but I really like their mids. I'd pay about $150 for them. $200 is a bit much.

What else have you tried? I thought they were decent, but only worth their price point. They sounded way too clouded to compete past the $100 price point. Though they were about even with the Audio Technica M50 (which is way overrated to begin with).

Budget: $20 CAD maximum

Music preferences: Trance, Dubstep, Rap/hip-hop, Pop, possibly some other genres but mainly those ones

Type/form-factor: In-Ear

Listening from: Phone, computer

They have to be comfortable, I don't have a big ear canal, so anything smaller would be preferred. Also, I want them to sound decent at the least. I made a thread about it earlier, but I've decided to post about it here. I was thinking about getting the Phillips [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] /3580, the Monoprice 8320, or the [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] .
