I don't see the need for massive bulky headphones unless you're a dj (and even then, it's most likely just stage presence)

ya i feel naked spinning without headphones around my neck/on my ear.

Where Is Ipatch??

Re: just bought $150 bose over ear headphones

I went with the Sennheiser HD205 II's:

It's hard listening to anything else after listening to these damn it. I have a pair of random earbuds I use for jogging and they sound like absolute garbage compared to the SennHeisers.

I might become an audiophile now...

These are the only earbuds I will probably ever use. Cheap, and very very durable. I had my last pair for almost a year and a half before I had to buy new ones. And even then, they were still $15. They form to your ears, and are comfortable as ****. I can wear these all day and be perfectly fine.

Earbuds are garbage, and extremely uncomfortable for me. I've never used a pair of earbuds that didn't have absolutely horrible sound quality. Large headphones that fit over your ears are far more comfortable.

Some earbuds have fairly decent sound quality; I own a pair of Yuin PK1s (got'em cheap) and they sound pretty good, and better when amped (I don't have an amp myself but I tried it out on one of my friend's)
Earbuds are pretty much as low budget you can go for audio quality though. They tend not to deliver sound as well as IEMs or circumaurals, for obvious reasons

I've really been meaning to by some over ear headphones lately. I'm torn between Fischer FA-003 (really slick reviews for neutral sound), Fischer FA-011 (apparently also very good), and Sennheiser HD555s (my friend has one of these and I quite like them)

RIP wallet

Re: just bought $150 bose over ear headphones

i cant stand over ear headphones at all. so in order to get decent sound quality i have to dish out 80+ on good IEM set. though i do always keep a crappy pair of earbuds with me when out and about and at work

Re: just bought $150 bose over ear headphones

for the quality sound you get its hardly worth the price

They have headphones designed to fit in ski helmets, bike helmets, w/e. I haven't really found any other headphones that do that very well. Plus, they fit in perfectly with the hilariously absurd and clown-like freestyle skiing fashion. Obviously you don't use them when you're not shredding the gnar, but for that purpose they work splendidly.

Re: just bought $150 bose over ear headphones

I hate earbuds because they end up hurting my ears, and the bose over heads are able to pivot so they can rest around my neck nicely, and it makes me look like a douchey DJ lol
