Sorry, but I can't decide what to do about headphones.
Here's the deal. Mine pretty much suck, so i want some new, better ones. I'm not sure how much i want to pay, but i would definitely prefer to pay les than $50 if possible. I want a pair of headphones that will give me quality sounds from a portable CD player that i can take around with me around school or wherever, so I probably don't want something incredibly bulky. So do you guys think you can help me out?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance |

| I use MDR-W08, works fine with my hardtrance addiction which produces some heavy bassline and massive sounds... pretty cheap too :) |

| Hrmm... I cant find the MDR-W08's anywhere. when i do a google search I got like 35 results, they're not for sale anywhere (nor have I found a picture). Are they not in production anymore? |

Okay, i think i found them at bestbuy.com
They don't look up to much... are they really worth it (Even if they are only $10)? |

The Sony MDR-V6 (not v600), when I bought it, was $57 US... it may be less price right now.
www.etronics.com has them for $59 (where I bought from). You can also do a price check on shopping.yahoo.com and search for Sony V6.
These are really great headphones, anyone that has tried them on these boards will most likely agree with me, they are a HUGE bargain considering the sound quality you get for the price.
If you need more information, or are looking for different headphones, you have 2 highly recommended options
1) Send a PM to the user Gluegun on these forums, he is a headphone conaseur, he is the knower of all things headphone!
2) Head over to www.head-fi.org it is a website/forum based on headphones, you will get lots of help here, they are friendly and informative folks.
Hope that helps you. |
