It's my first Headphones I put any thought into buying what impresses me the most is it sounds just as it does 3 years ago when I got it
If I have any complaint at the worst it can sometimes be "tinny" but only a tiny bit It's mostly very neutral.

I bought M50s and a Fiio E10 like four years ago and have never bothered getting anything else. Still suits me fine. Will upgrade to Beyers eventually, probably.

I agree, I've tried these and had a hard time hearing them as justifying their cost. even the build seems like plastic

Nice. Have you tried changing cushions on yours? I bought velvet cushions some time ago but they didn't fit so I just glued them on lol.

>>65975466
I dont have a problem with the build all though I agree they seem a bit cheap.

Great stage presence and the sound overall is pretty good beside THE FUCKING TINNITUS INDUCING 7-8KHZ RANGE that just fucking destroy my ears.

Nothing wrong with that, you're just used to the sound of your cheap earbuds. Just hold on to your headphones, maybe you could share it with friends if they come over or your girlfriend, if you have any. Do you have any friends or a girlfriend?

>>65978340
you do get used to headphones with time. that's where the myth of "burn in" comes from. Also, ear buds are terrible for your hearing because they don't isolate (so you have to turn them up to compensate) and have way too much treble, so it's in your best interest to get used to the better headphones

Klipsch r6 earbuds
Pretty great sound quality for a decent price ($60, which is more than your garden variety earbuds but taking into account the sound quality and durability it's a good deal)

what are some iems with good build quality, isolation and soudstage? I'm thinking of replacing my falling apart mc5s

Shure SE-215. They have a negative profile and you can literally sleep with them. Also clean out your ears often after you sleep with them.

HD600. Momentums for outside use. I also got the Fostex THX00 but those haven't arrived yet. I'm pretty excited for them though.

I think I'm the only person in the world who finds these uncomfortable. I am a DJ at my school's radio station and halfway through the show I'll just end up taking these off because they sit weird on my ears
>tfw fucked up ears
>>
I'm broke as fuck so I just use the Apple earbuds my friend got me as a gift. They're so uncomfortable and don't sound impressive in the slightest.

Thinking of saving up for a pair of Direct Sound EX29s, what do you guys think are they good or should I look for something else instead? Generally I want headphones that cup around the ears, have a "flat eq" (no bass boost or treble; just an accurate representation of the audio being played), have good audio quality, and give decent isolation so I can wear them while practicing drumming.
>>
Do you guys walk around with headphones on the street, or do you have another pair for that type of use?
>>
>>65982827
I walk around with my momentum over ears, I might not look fashionable but then again that's not why I wear them :))) I hate when idiots prefer a pair of headphones entirely due to their looks
>>
>>65973660
i want those so bad, but i also want a GTX 1080 don't know which one i should aim for. Im leaning towards the 600s because they are way more of an investment than a GPU that will be obsolete in the """"""'near""""""" future
>>
just ordered a pair of akg 240s, supposed to come in a week. i did some research and they look pretty damn good, especially for 60$. opinions?

How the hell do you go outsides with these things on your head?

>>65985462
You don't wear the headphones OP posted outside, they're open design and just very big and clunky. Either you go for in-ears, on-ears or small over-ears.
