Affordable Quality Headphones
    #14190073 - 03/27/11 01:13 AM (12 years, 11 months ago)

So i'm looking for new headphones and the only ones that I know of that are in my price range are from Skullcandy, but I hear that their products are shit. So what would you guys recommend for around 50 bucks?

I don't consider a $50 set of earphones to be affordable.

at that price range I think I'd go for a pair of Koss Portapros.

Everything is better than it was the last time.  I'm good.

If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.

It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence.

I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too.  If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

Yeah man, you can get HD280's for 80 bucks or maybe less now and they're really nice cans if you can drive them properly.  Well worth the extra few bucks.

Headphones are way cheaper than buying a nice stereo system.

make your own set of headphones, go to bestbuy in the car audio department and buy a set of tweeters, then go to radio shack and get some wire and a audio plug thingy, then go to the supermarket and buy some liquerass, run the wire through the hole in the liquerass to each tweeter then to the audio plug and your done, if they fit a little loose for you then all you have to do is wrap some polish sausage around your head

Isn't vodka like one of the only liquors that comes in plastic bottles? I see hobos with them little plastic flask-shaped bottles all the time...

I never drink cheap alcohol, that's just too low-class, even for me.

Headphones are weird. Ironically the higher end ones tend to all sound the same. I'd go with a used pair of high end ones on eBay or Craigslist. Often people don't use stuff that is really nice.

I'm fine with them white iPod earphones; they're cheap, and they deliver decent quality sound. :shrug:
