What headphones do you wear?
    #19152784 - 11/18/13 03:14 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

I need new ones for gym, I'm using in-ears ATM and they work well.

I prefer closed-off phones but don't want it to be hot or heavy to wear

I have Audio-Technica I use at home so I would consider them first.

Audio Technica ATH-M50s


Those are the coiled cable ones, but same idea. I wish I had those instead of straight cable.

Need to get a pair of IEMs. Won't be for a while though, have plenty of other financial priorities at the moment.

Over the holidays I may pick up some Sennheiser "Momentum" headphones.  They came out with a new "over the ear" model.

I also wear earbuds for working out/activities, and would be open to suggestions.  I'm looking for a pair with a the small "fin" to hold them in your ear (like the bose).  I almost bought the Jaybird work out earphones, but they're entirely blue tooth, and I didn't want that.

I know Bose has a pretty horrible reputation in home audio, does that extend to mobile gear as well?

I use Sennheiser HD555's, but I did the outer foam removal which essentially turns it into a HD595

For working out and just generally being out of the house you want IEMs.  I have Shure SE215s that have been great for me.  They're about 3 years old and still going strong.  They're $100.

For around the house and just relaxing I use some Sennheiser HD 280 pro's I have had for years now, They sound amazing and give all the quality I could ask for.

And for mobile on the go phones I use a set of Bluetooth LG HBS-700 around the neck phones. The battery lasts all of 8 hours and you can control the music and volume from the neck unit. I absolutely love these and would buy another tomorrow if they broke. I will never go back to cords when i am moving around again.

Skullcandies. Both IEM's and cans. Why? Cheap. Easily available. Sounds quality is not too horrific, especially of the IEM's I picked up. I use them for lossy audio streams and files anyway, so sound quality is obviously not the primary criterion here.

Their build quality is also shit though.  The IEMs are around $30 I'm guessing?  My $100 Shures will outlast them 5-1, have replaceable cables, sound A LOT better, and are more comfortable.

Which Shure's do you have? Are you able to compare them to high end cans? I've never owned high end IEM's, only cans. But have been considering them due to portability.

Build quality hasn't been an issue so far. The cans I've had for about a year now, the IEMs I've bought only recently. Maybe they'll last only 6 months. For €25, that would even be almost acceptable. If they last a full year, I'll be happy. Btw, I'm pretty glad with the way they block noise, I hadn't expected that.

Shure SE215.  They're pretty cheap ($100).

They do not have the same bass extension as my ATH-M50s, nor do they have as big of a soundstage.  They do sound pretty damned good though - I could never lug around cans when I'm out of the house, it's a GIANT pain in the ass.  I tried it a couple of times and said fuck that.  I went with relatively cheap IEMs since I take them everywhere so that I don't have to be super careful with them.  If they break it's not the end of the world.

I have listened to Westone W4s before (http://www.amazon.com/Westone-4-W4/dp/B004M4RTUY) and although they still did not match the M50s in terms of bass extension they do have incredible detail and had a similar soundstage.  Cans do sound better, but I don't think it's worth the compromise of having to carry them around.
