What headphones/earphones do you use?

[Sagat]

Oh, let's go.

For home usage I have my SteelSeries Siberia V2's. Usually for computer and for the iriver.

For hi-fi and chillout when I'm not actively using my computer I have my Sony MDR-XD300's. Usually in conjunction with the living room amplifier or in my bed connected to my computer. Right now I borrowed them to girlfriend.

For street usage I have my Koss PortaPro's connected to either my iriver or my touchwiz.

Just wanted something cheap that would hold, and they seemed popular so ended up with them. No more 8 euro headsets that break after a couple of months...

Saw them in Japan over the summer, for a pretty reasonable 1900 yen. ($20~ish bucks.) Also got a cute Domo iPod cover to match it. Oh Japan. <3

After having used these amazing wireless headphones, I will never go back to wired one ever again. The range is amazing on these, I can wear these while mowing the lawn!! I really love putting these on and sitting outside on my back porch toking the night away.

Cables = the suck!

I have a pretty heavy duty Sennheiser headset (I'm bad at remembering serials.) I use for gaming and a pair Sennheiser earbuds I bought on the cheap here to replace a pair of Sony ones that bit the dust that use to listen to **** or use on my PSP when I'm on the go.

I find a brand I like a stick with it.

Same here for gaming. Otherwise I have a set of nice over-ear Bose noise cancel headphones. The bass off them makes my skull vibrate <3

[ShadowExile]

Use my Megalodon for everything. It has it's own Audio Processing so it can take directional sounding and stuff, and btw, on my Megalodon I've turned the bass up as high as it can go I love it :D

(Massive fan of Bass stuff), so yeah, I dunno but it's epic.

I use these as well, so comfy =).

Before that I used a pair of Plantronic DSP-500's until one day (they were already in the process of breaking), I left it on the couch beside my computer and my dog (he was young then) decided the wire looked fun to chew on. :(

Sound quality on those far exceeds any headphones I've ever listened to. It's what I use now.

I have some pos ear buds that were like 10$ at Target for when I'm jogging or biking.

**** yes someone that understands how awesome Beats by Dre really are. These things are phenominal. I'd never, and I do mean NEVER produce music wiht headphones on, but these bad boys (the 350$ set) sound just as good if not better than most studio speakers.

It is impossible to prefer the sound in skullcandy phones compared to equally priced heisers/akg's/audio technicas. but hey, of course, he maybe doesn't use them for listening.

I wear giant headphones because I think they make me look hip.

[Syr1]

Senn 555's, affordable, comfy and sound damn nice for an open set.

[Kabb]

I think you guys just put photos that you can find on google,and more than half of those how says that they have razer baracuda and other gaming headphones just have some fake xiang tziang headphone(9.99 cents..)
Just to be ontopic:Philips SHP 2500.

The actual difference? Earbuds will decay your natural hearing some 75% faster than normal headphones. Not to mention that Earbuds are absolutely horrible for comfort unless your ear cavitiy is a perfect circle (which none are).

Oh, and the sound quality is incomparable by any real means.

[TomKat]

This is the only post in this thread that I agree with :(

Oh, and the one about the ipod touch ones.

I have biggish headphones but I don't know the make (oh i just checked... Phillips). This is because (1) the cord for my ipod ones isn't long enough and (2) I don't want to have to hear the TV as my computer is in the living room and (3) they're more comfy.

why the **** would you spend so much money on headphones just to "look cool" when - lets be honest here - noone is going to see you wearing them anyway. don't give me the crap about sound quality; if I remember rightly someone posted a link in here before comparing two versions of sound quality and most people couldn't differentiate between them.

[Fozzle]

I was being sarcastic in describing all the people who buy the massive Skullcandy headphones that sound like garbage.

I can tell a noticeable difference in earbuds to a decent pair of headphones, but I cannot personally differentiate between my 65$ Grado's and our production studio's ridiculously priced mixing headphones. (The brandname escapes me at the moment)

Better headphones = better highs and lows. You can hear background noises much better. Most of the time when people do **** like "omg these two headphones sounds the same!" its cause they're not listening to **** where you can hear a difference.
