new to the forums, just wondering what are good headphones for trance. i got skullcrushers because of the hype that they had a powerful bass and they down right sucked...bad, though i come from using a Sennheiser HD 580, though it doesnt provide the bass that i want. I'm defiantly a bass junkie and wouldn't mind closed headphones cause i'm sure they would provide for a better bass. I care about bass and sound quality. wondering which bass heavy headphones you guys use. Buying price should be about the same as the HD 580. Also, if this post has been posted before, sorry about it. again, new to the forums, and thanks.

Sony MDR-7506

Sony 7506 x2

Honestly, the best thing that ever happened to me and electronic music.

You should pay no more than $100 new. I couldn't find them for much cheaper online so I bought locally.

I have also seen them on craigslist but they get snatched up quick.

I think I'd pay $200 for them now. They will last you many many years too if you take care of them... if not replacement parts are cheap too.

thanks for the advice, i'll defiantly check out those pair of headphones

there really isn't such a thing as bass heavy and good sound quality in the same headphones IMO.
if you want headphones with good sound and built quality, get the sony mdr-7506s.
if you want excessive bass, just get anything that says super extra mega bass boost...

Sennheiser HD-280...German engineering, amazing sound if you got the money but I think they're not too much more if not similar in price to the Sony MDR-7506s.

I checked out that "super extra mega bass boost" called Skullcrushers and they totally sucked. the bass sounded forced into music and it didnt even belong there. quality of sound was horrible and very fuzzy because of the forced bass. bad experience, dont want to repeat that one again

otherwise good, but the headband cracks. so i wouldn't recommend them.

and as inconspicuous pointed out, there's a huge thread about headphones in the dj booth.
