I was tired of buying expensive headphones with good sound quality, but cheap plastic hinges. I like a pair I got off ebay for around $100. They are V-Moda crossfade m100. I liked them so much I tried their hi-def earbud model "Octave" for my 9 to 5 listening to flacs.

 

I have the Audio Technica model. I Like them fine. Make sure you get the straight cable, not coiled. These are all decent phones.

 

I now bought the Audio Technica MH50, and I like them *yes*
Thanks for everybodys help

 

Great stuff. I wasn't immediately blown away by them as I don't think anything is really hyped but it's when you are listening to a song you know inside out and you start hearing sounds that you haven't heard before that you begin to appreciate them. Also the bass is incredibly defined.

 

Definitely buy the Beyerdynamic DT770 pro 250 ohm next time .
They are absolutely stunning for the price.
If you have them on for a couple of hours, you won't even notice they are there.
+super neutral sound (excellent for mixing)
+Bass goes extremely deep
+Replaceable ear pads
+Coiled wire
Used by many respected artist and other professionals.
Don't buy the Shure, they suck, trust me I've used them.
Audio Technica hurts after a while because of the pressure on your head.
Sennheiser never been my favorite brand, but you could take a listen to them.

 

ABSOLUTELY !!! "BEYERDYNAMIC DT-770 / 250 OHM" , THE bEST YA CAN USE IN A sTUDIO!!!

I have 5 pair of them and they never fail me. I also Like my Fostex T-50's ;
I have like 6 pair of those too , and I rather like them better in the control
room when Im recording a full band.
..... ( It leave's enuff pairs of 770's for the band to use!!)



770's cant be beat though , really its the best dollar to dollar.
(Especially when you can grab'em up from Ebay cheap!!)

p3ACVE my friendz!

the professionals recommend "AudioTechnica ATH-M50"

and in the old times they used to recommend "AudioTechnica M40's"

so you cant go wrong all my headphones are from AudioTechnica and i never found another headphones that match to this ones... they are amazing

 

I think the best advice is to go to the store and try these:

- Beyer DT 770(880/990)
- Audio Technica ATH-M50
- AKG K-701
- Sony MDR-7506
- Sennheiser HD 280PRO

* I use a Denon AH-D7000 *

 

+1 for ATH-M50's

I've had a pair of black coiled ones for 3 years now and they are still like new. Very good for the studio and on the road plus they are sturdy as a rock.

 

thanks to everyone on this thread, im going to go and shoplift a pair of ath-m50's as soon as i can since i cant afford them lol


but seriously, once i get the dough i really need to upgrade as well, since i will soon be in a house with a baby and loud ass dubstep at 3 am isnt going to fly lol

so i need some real mastering headphones, now i know which ones to get

cheers

 

ordered AKG 702 and ATH M50 to be able to compare - im really exited - 130 € difference -

BEyerDynamic 770T is interessteing too, but pushes highs and lows ?! so i decieded to order them NOT

 

You will be very happy with ATH m50 and they are way under priced.

 

got the headphones - will compoare them in the next view days-

people started directly to bother

"... you look like:

I thought of buying a pair of 271, but I was a bit worried about "closed headphone" sound. In your opinion, how "open" they sound?

 

I got The ATH M50 I paid 99€ for them New, and I have to say they are amazing.
