Headphones

Just wondering what headphones everybody uses. I have a pair of Klipsch S4's and they sound good but they are kind of broken. I have to bend them in order to get the sound to work. I am in the market for some new ones, so I'm looking for some recommendations.

I have a pair of skull candy's (i don't remember which model but they're in-ear) and I use my Apple headphones most.

I use Bose over the ear headphones.

Sony professional series over the ear headphones. Most comfortable for mixing long sessions and best drivers I've heard in anything near their price range.

I really like the Shure SE 115's Sound great and block out noise.

I use skully candy headphones lol they get the job done and right now can't afford anything too expensive. Looking to get some Dre Beats soon though

I have a pair of Seinnheiser CX 500-B ear buds. They sound really nice. Good highs and excellent lows. Plus they're dirt cheap.

I have had a couple sets of V-moda headphones and my experience has been really good.

These are what I use now. The reinforced cord is awesome for durability.

Running headphones

What headphones u use for workouts (swimming, running, gym, etc)

I've been using the Motorola rocker bluetooth headphone. It works great outdoor and indoor, but not under water. Got one for cheap from Newegg for $39

I'd never swim with them, but I use Klipsch S4i for running (I'd have bought S4a if they were out when I got mine). Sound great. When not running, I use Bowers & Wilkins P5's. It really all depends on budget and personal needs.

Is the p5 really that good, they are affordable and seem really nicely designed

I'd never run in them, lol. I run the West Coast warehouse for the company that handles Bowers & Wilkins US distribution, so I'm a huge B&W fan. I've got a Panorama, too. Love it.
The comfort and amazing sound quality make P5's worth $300. Fortunately for me, I didn't pay full price. You won't get deep, loud, thumping bass. It's properly rendered sound, the way the artists intended it.
I listen to multiple genres. They all sound better with P5's. Whether it's classic/alternative/rock or dubstep, I'm hearing things I never heard before in the music.

I use the commons. Phones in-ears get splited out from my ears because of the sweat.
I just need to have those who have a support for the back of the ear, to do not fall when running too fast =P

I use the Skullcandy Ink'd for workouts. They're light and comfortable but the cable does make some noise if you let it rub on things. Just run the cable from the inside of your shirt to avoid this. Plus they sounds decent audio-wise.

Rocketfish BT headphones. Great sound quality, all controls are on the left headphone, fits great and a full change last 10-12 hours. Also works with almost all music players available on android.
Available at Best Buy for $59.

The S4's are really nice, try to get the one with the buttons so you can stop and pause on the go.

I use skull candy phones for running, and Bose makes headphones for underwater. Sony, I believe sells vaccum bags for phones underwater.
Sent from my R800x using xda premium

i use bose noise cancelling headphones. bass is great.

My votes go to either Skullcandy or Jlab Jbuds.

for running I prefer Sennheiser CX-200 street II and Monster Beats by Dr. Dre solo. Beats are so comfortable, I love them!

Good in-ear headphones for >$25

As you can tell im not trying to break the bank,but just want the bang for my buck want to get something to go along with the beats audio. Any recommendations?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA

Well the thread title says you want headphones that cost more than 25 bucks. I'm assuming you meant less than 25. There are very few earbuds that are good for such a low cost. Me, I used the one provided with the phone.
Good ear buds go for more around the 100 price range though. I recommend these http://www.klipsch.com/image-S4A-headphones
I don't own a pair but I tried my friends, man, they are pretty good.

I use smokin buds by skull candy literal every day in the gym, and my main music ranges from meek mills to ffdp and everything in between, they hold up to it all and never have blown on max volume all day. Plus there are tons of colors to choose from. $25 everywhere you go. And even cheaper most places

Haha no problem. In that case skull candies are fit for your price range. But I am an audiophile, no offense I consider them on the lower end

I don't mind spending 100< (got it right this time) on headphones but its just getting them to last....i go through headphones like its no tomorrow....lol that's why i always buy a cheap pair... Any advice?

Although they don't go in the ear canal, the Gumy earbuds by JVC are, by far, the best sounding earbuds I've ever heard for under $25. They are almost as good as my Klipsch s4 earbuds and tend to be more comfortable since they are disc shaped and sit on the outer edge of the ear. They look similar to the Apple earbuds, but produce a much richer sound than the Apple buds.
I would rate the Klipsch s4 buds as the overall best sounding ones I own, followed closely by the JVC Gumy buds. They sound great with the Beats equalizer on my HTC Rezound. Both are better than Skullcandy FMJ earbuds and Skullcandy inkd earbuds, IMHO. Keep in mind that I listen to extreme metal and don't like too much bass in my earbuds.
Gumy earbuds are $9 at Walmart or Target. The Klipsch s4 are $80 at Worst Buy.

I'm using Meelectronics M9P, pretty good for something under $25 as well.
IMO the M9P's bass does slightly overpower the mids, and I personally find that vocals are slightly recessed as well. But it's good enough for my commuting needs

I'm using creative ep 630.
They are great, just remember to glue those ear buds to the thing itself our you're going to lose them for sure

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004S7Q8CA/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details I got those, and they are amazing for the price at around 15 pounds.

Look up soundmagic E10, on par with the s4's. Build quality not the best, but sound is brilliant for the price.

If you find it "TL;DR", skim through the your desired price range, and note down those with the highest(>8.0) Sound and Value ratings, then with your options narrowed down, read his comments on their sounds, and details like what's included in the box, build quality etc.
If you're really not in a rush, go one price-range tier higher, as you can often find them under discount such that they actually fit within your budget.

anyone know how urBeats bundled with the one x compare to senheiser cx300's? I just wanna decide if I should sell the urBeats and BNIB is obviously better for earphones!

I use these Sennheiser CX300-II earphones and they sound amazing

i bought a pair of monster jamz for $40bux when it was on sale. i've yet to use them though but for the price i guess can't go wrong.. i bought the premium version of the HTC one x that includes the Dr Dre beat solo hd.. but it feels weird to use that as a handsfree lol..

UE 100, i've been using them for 1/2 a year..
pretty decent for the price ...

Thanks guys for the recommendations.

i have the sennheiser cx200. I and many of my colleges at work have the same heaphones and we all agree that they are really good.
Sennheiser cx200

What heaphones are everyone using?

I'm looking to get a new set of headphones, wondering what everyone is using.
I'm looking for some that are less than $30-40, not looking for audiophile quality, just good solid headphones.
I want earbuds so that i can carry them with me. tangle free would be a plus, as would android controls and a mic.
I found these 2 on amazon for cheap, anyone have any experience with either?

I'm not sure if over the ears are an option but these are excellent for the price, http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001RB24S2/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8. Fantastic bass, clear highs, deep lows. Sound stomps beats. As far as comfort, the pads are extremely soft and light weight.

sorry, I should have specified, I'm looking for ear buds, to be able to put them in my pocket and carry with me. I edited original post.

I would highly suggest the NuForce NE600M ($30). It doesn't have in-line volume controls, but it has the mic and button for pausing/skipping. I don't own this model, but I do own three others from the same company (including the model that this one replaced) and they sound great and the mic is surprisingly decent considering the cost. I can't vouch for how well the self-detangling cord works, since its new to this model, but it does have it.
I can't post links yet, but just search NE600M on amazon, it comes in black, red, and lime. The NE600X ones do not have the mic.

I actually like the ones the phone came with

How about these? Reviews look good. No controls though.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001RB24S2/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8
If you want something with controls that offer quality it's going to cost around ~50. Probably more i.e. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001RB24S2/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8
Keep in mind if you want full functionality control, the headphones should be labeled as Android compatible.

ive been rocking the bose ie2 pretty amazing headphones i must say.. =D

ive been rocking sennheiser cx475's for a while now and love them and they are pretty durable also!

I like using my sennheiser mx 580 on my GS3

Not quite the $40 mark... But I've really enjoyed these noise cancelling buds from Rocketfish. I paid $60 at Bestbuy sometime ago.

Bought the Image S4 Black In-Ear Headphones at Best Buy a year ago. They sell for $79 but they are well worth the money. I've been blown away by them, the sound quality is beyond anything Bose has made and it also blocks out outside noise/sound!

I have the Xears XSR330PRO but most people from head-fi.org seems to appreciate the Xears XE200PRO more.
See head-fi.org XEARS appreciation thread here.
Also... use the promo code: KLANGFUZZIS and the total will be about $43.32 USD for XE200PRO. Only downside is the shipping... I got mine in about 10 days but it was worth the wait.
For reference, my Xears XSR330 has better all around sound with a punchier bass than my $120 Westone UM1. It's also much louder.

Bose QC15, but choke up $300 bills for 'em...

Klipsch s4 - Haven't heard better yet. Only problem for me with any in-ear is even the smallest buds don't fit very well.

I vote S4's too. Amazon is not the best place to buy though. I got mine for $59 shipped on Ebay, from Beach Camera which is an official dealer.

Skull headphones any good?

I was at Dealextrreme today and saw some headphones call Skull,from here http://dx.com/s/earphone+skull . they have head phones and i was wondering if they were anygood. i trying to look into something else that has better sound. I was just curious about the skull earphone. Thanks,

Since they're marketed at fashion-conscious people, I'd be very surprised if they have good sound quality. Most buds like that are form-over-function. Have a look at some known brands instead, like JVC, Sennheiser or MEElectronics.

they're aimed at younger crowds and are pretty bass heavy. they are cheaply made and one ear WILL give out on you within a couple months. i've had multiple pairs and it never fails.

For good headphones, look into Sennheiser, Bose, hell Beats are aimed at a fashion/hip hop crowd but they're pretty good. Although if you're looking for ear buds rather than over ear headphones, I personally recommend the Bose IE2 headset. It retails for $100 but I got mine brand new on Amazon for $70.

Don't get beats or skullcandy or bose for that matter.. It's just fashion and don't sound like the top end products do.. Do some searching before you buy..

Get the Sony MDR-E818LP. They're about $10-20. They are by far the best earphones I've used. Great bass, and great treble.
I would NOT recommend any electronics from Deal Extreme. Yes, they're cheap but they quality represents their price tag.

If you're looking for over the ears headphones, you can consider the Audio Technica ATH-PRO5V
Very very balanced and clear sound. Balance is the main characteristic of these headphones. From there, if you like your songs bass-heavy or a little bit more powerful in the highs, you can you an equalizer app and save your favorite settings as a preset.

no doubt. i went through 5 sets. gas station by me sells (sold) them. every single one of them had an ear go out. even just from a slight tug. i thought it was my fault because sometime if the wire get slightly caught it will kill it. nope just poor quality. another thing i noticed was that each color sounded different? is that how it is supposed to be or are they just that crappy?

I'm sorry but Bose is just as bad as Skullcandy.
Bose is overpriced stuff marketed as 'serious' audiophile gear.
While Skullcandy is marketed as 'cool', 'fashion' audiophile gear.
The only Bose headphones worth getting are the Noise Cancelling series and the only Skullcandy worth buying is the Aviator.
I used to have Bose, one of the biggest mistakes I've made with my money.
