VEVO wrote 2nd request by me:

I need a pair of headphones for my iPhone 4S. I'd prefer for them to be on or over ear, no earbuds. I prefer high bass if possible. My budget is $30. Also, they can't be overly bulky as I'll be using them at school. A fold over would be nice as well. I know it's a bit much but I'll let you be the judge. BTW, the last headphones you recommended to me have worked great! Also, do you know of any Bluetooth headphones that are good for a bit over my budget? I doubt there are any really good ones for $30 anyways.


Can you find a way to add $10 to get the AKG K81? I've also heard good things about the JVC S400.


Aren't the HA-S400s Japanese imports or do they make US versions too?

Nice! I might go ahead and get those instead. I like their look more than the AKGs.

Shure SE215. Good price now, too.

Ishcabible wrote Isn't that illegal? And in my [friends'] experience, $1,300 won't get you as far as you want. A $1,300 system, which includes all the damping you'll need, will sound about as good as a $130 headphone. If you're fine with that, just say the word; I can probably help.

Thoughts on B&W P5, P3 and Sennheiser PX360?

Do the P5's work well with portable devices? Or do they require a more powerful output?

Interesting. I thought it was illegal everywhere if both ears are covered because it's kind of an impediment.

The P5 works well; they're not designed for powerful amps. The P3 sounded more muffled than the already muffled P5 (they're muffled in a pleasing way though, kind of like the ESW9, but warmer). I've only demoed the PX360 and I didn't like them much at all. I put them about level with the P3, which is under the much cheaper AKG K181. If the P5 was clearer, I'd probably buy a pair.

Also this: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] is really decreasing in price.

i0S wrote Your budget: 50 bucks (US DOLLARS)

Which genres you'll be listening to: Rap, Rock, Dubstep

On ear please

What you are listening from: Numark Mixtrack pro
I need DJ headphones or regular that i can use for DJ. Thanks.
Please Pm me when you figured out.

Find it on Amazon if you can please.


$50 is very little for a DJ headphone. AKG K81 and K518 are some of your options. I'd recommend stretching your budget.


If i sell my beats i could get something up to $200 but then i would want them to be good headphones for both Listening and DJ. And still on ear plz Thanks for your info.

Do you want on ear or around ear? The K81 is on ear.
