Official TPWW Headphones thread
 
So what does everyone rock?

I have a set of Sony MD-300's I've had for about 7 years, and they have been real troopers. Been stood on about 100 times, been around the world a few times too. The Audio quality is OK for a set of old thrashed headphones.
I also have a set of Sony MDR-NC6 noise cancelling headphones. They are blatant rubbish. I got them off a mate who bought them, found they were rubbish, and forked out $600 for a set of Bose Noise Cancelling, which are fucken sweet, but $600? Jeeze.

A few hours ago I went and got a set of Sennheiser HD280 Professional's. Been giving them a listen to through the laptop, work PC, and Ipod and they are amazing. Certainly none of those will do them any justice for Audio output, so I can't wait to get them home and have a crank.

They are ok

"Noise cancelling" or something but you gotta put in a battery for that which I don't

ear buds

Assman has the NC-6's I bagged earlier.
If you turn the noise cancelling on, does it fucken suck or what?

Skull Candy ear buds.

Bad Company 04-15-2008 11:28 PM

I dunno about ear buds... I worry they'll damage my hearing

Blitz 04-15-2008 11:30 PM

I got a set of generic DJ style ones that I bought for $10, and they are amazing.

Also got a set of Skullcandy ones that I've barely used because the headband is too damn tight.

i rock these. a touch sub/bass heavy but still incredible. sweet as fuck for listening to techno/dance/electric etc. not as good for my meat and potatoes rock music though, but still plenty good enough .

Bad Company 04-15-2008 11:47 PM

Nice, I was looking for a pair of those, but they didn't have any :(

ron the dial 04-15-2008 11:58 PM

a pair of sony mdr-nc5's that i've had for about 5 years. noise cancelling, but take a battery which kind of sucks. other than that, they are bad ass. just got a pair of some mad expensive shure buds from a buddy whose dad works for them. can't do anything physical in them or they fall out, though. sound quality is excellent.

El Fangel 04-16-2008 12:46 AM

I usually buy a cheap 10-20 dollar pair, as I break headphones alot, they fall off, or get stepped on, or sat on, or some extent broken by me or someone else.

Couldn't find a picture of them, cause they are mad old. Like I have probably had them like 8 or 9 years. But I have a pretty nice set of Jensen ear-muff style headphones. Pretty good sound considering how old they are. I could definitely go for a new pair, but they will do until they die. As for other headphones, I have a pretty generic logitech headset that I've used for just audio before.

Funky Fly 04-16-2008 06:43 AM

generic Sony earbuds
an $80 pair of Sony headphones which I don't feel like going to get t check the model #
the aforementioned Bose Noise Canceling headphones. :cool:

My Mom asked me what I wanted for Christmas, so I told her I wanted a decent set of headphones, so I could crank my amp and not get the cops called on me. She got me a pair of Bose headphones, so now I use them for everything.

Nothing special, just a fairly cheap set of in ear Creative earphones. Think they're EP-630's or something, mainly bought them for using in cars, trains, planes etc. and they do a fairly decent job of blocking out outside noise despite not being true noise cancelling ones.

I always go cheap since I have a habit of losing or breaking them - plus I can't be arsed with huge sets of headphones like most of the ones posted so far.

Triple A 04-16-2008 10:50 AM

Whenever I try to use the iPod earbuds, they never stay in my ear. Like my ear is missing the part that would make it stay or something. Am I the only one this happens to. Don't wanna have some freak ear.

ron the dial 04-16-2008 10:59 AM

the ipod earphones are ass and don't stay in my ear. most people i talk to at work experience this same issue.

The Destroyer 04-16-2008 11:04 AM

I had problems with my old Sennheiser earbuds as well, didn't seem an especially good fit.

Another reason I went for in-ears, really.

Bose QC2.

Going out of town and I want peace and quiet while I'm on the plane ride. Worth the money.

Well, mine don't fall out, but they don't sit right in my ears.

Also got a pair of Sony wireless headphones for when I'm on the go. They're hot shit.

Did you pick African colors on purpose?

U-Warrior 04-16-2008 03:27 PM

Reggae was actually my first real introduction to music, and I've been a fan since.

It makes some small static noise thing which I guess cancels noise out. I have used it like once when I was at home and there was no other noise so I dunno
