uncomfortable. Enjoy rubbing your ears every hour. Have fun with those extended listening sessions that won't happen because of the clamping pain on your poor ears.
If you wank stains cared just a little bit about your music you'd pay money for comfort and neutrality. ATH have neither.

But they're too expensive

I have had mine for over a year now. They are comfy. Only headphones I ever had that wernt were Grado i60. Those hurt after a while on top of the head and ears

I'm new to the /mu/ community. I've been lurking for a few years now, and just haven't had enough time to do research on headphones with my job being so time consuming, so I just asked my brother, he said these, so I ordered them without reading any reviews.

Go with AKG.
AKG make uncomfortable headphones but you can easily replace the pads
>See Z reviews for details on what to buy
Out of the two AKG is much more neutral, get ATH is your a junky bass head.
ATH are meme cans for kids

Mate your brother is a twat. And you are aswell for not reading reviews. Besides chances are you'd read 5 positive reviews without even looking at the cons you fookin bass head
>he fell for the audiotechnica meme

How pathetic do you have to be to be mad over shit like this on Christmas?

Well being an architect leaves me pretty much zero time to research. I was originally just gonna buy a pair of beats, but they sounded like garbage.

If you want bang for your buck get Monoprice 8323s. Neutral as hell for the price, comes with great features for the price - detachable cables and folding aswell as 360* pad rotation. They can recieve a EQ damn well but the downside to their low price but great quality is the comfort and build. However if your willing to shill out some extra money you can buy a pair of HM5 pads which can easily replace the stock pads on the Monoprice's. Trust me I used the stock Monoprice for just under a year and when I decided to bite the bullet and replace them with HM5 pads the headphones became a god send. Great quality and portability and now with added comfort for longer listening sessions.
If however you want great everything for a really decent price you can always look towards Brainwavz HM5s. Incredibly neutral, like really neutral for their price, comfort is off the charts - they feel like literal clouds. Soundstage is pretty far away from your ear so you really hear the entire stage which makes music more "full" if you catch my termenology. The accessories you recieve with the headphones is incredible, not to mention a extra pair of the legendary HM5 pads (which can replace a huge amount of headphones on the market and are slowly becoming industry standard) Brands like audiotechnica now use a similar pad to the original hm5 pads on their newer ATH line.
This also goes out to any fool who fell for the audiotechnica meme

They're fine. A bit overrated at this, but extremely popular, which is why contrarians don't like them.

>Monoprice 8323
I had them, they clamp too hard/heavy and are way too fucking warm/bloated bass heavy. Had to keep bending the headband, and eventually sewed a sock around it. Heard a lot of people's headband snapped from stretching. Gave it away after I bought the th-mx2's when they came out for $40
They sound much better and are more comfortable. The lower model, th02's have measurements online, and they perform better than the 8323. They're much cheaper now it seem though. The mx2's are also pretty indestructible, I treat them like shit since I hardly ever use them as I already have a pair of akg's at home and etymotics for outdoors.
