Hello
i need help and i know that here are some audiophiles
i have desire and i want to buy some earphone to 40€+-30%
cant decide between in-ear and on/over-ear and i dont want some ****ty chinese stuff
can anybode help me?
thanks
I prefer to have over/on-ear headset since not every in-ears can fit my ears.
Lots of in-ears fall easily from my ears, getting the one which fits well is difficult as hell for me.
For these price range I suggest these on- and over-ear headphones:
1. Sony XB300 or 500 (I have a XB300)
2. Koss porta pro (My sister has this)
3. AKG K420 (not for big heads)
I am wearing XB300 for daily basis (subways, streets, etc.) but using Sennheiser PXC450 at home or for long journies especially on airplanes.
PXC450 is one of the best headphone have ever bought
I would highly recommend the Sennheiser CX400II!
These are in-ear and come with 6(!) sizes of rubbers for it. They cancel A LOT of voice. If someone is talking right next to you and you're listening to music you hear about nothing. Also the sound quality is very good, if you like bass, it's definitely a great set!

Found a link: http://www.sennheiser.com/sennheise...ssic-line_cxseries-in-ear-earphones-cx-400-ii
Price will be (in the Netherlands) around €35
thanks for replies guys
i was thinking about akg k420, but they are plastic and i would brake them sooner or later
Sony XB500 and Sennheiser CX400II look really good, now i cant decide :-/
I would recommend to think also about buying the Koss Porta Pro. I bought it for round about 25 € and I think the sound is better than my 100 € Bose Headphones.
I didn't expect much, but it has a brilliant sound and I was really, really surprised.
There are also 10 years warranty... Easy to carry and there's a bag and a 6.2mm adapter included.
I use the in ear Sony MDR-ex300! Perfect sound and powerfull bass.

I don't know but maybe there is a place you can test several types? We can tip a lot of things but all our ears and tastes are different.

I like the ones that came with my Desire....and when they stopped working I rang HTC who were more than helpful and sent me a replacement pair for free
As an old-school valve amp & vinyl audiophile and former high-end hi-fi salesman, I suggest you need to be asking yourself the following questions:
1. What kind of music do you listen to?
2. How much looking isolation from external sound would you like?
3. Do you like your sound to be really neutral or "coloured"?
4. Do you have equalisation in your ROM or music app?
We've found the Koss Mirages are a great price, have a punchy dynamic sound with good external isolation, and are quite comfortable. Koss also have a great replacement policy.
I've just bought some Yamaha EPH-50's and am surprised by their great low frequency response and smooth natural highs. They convey a nice sense of space (as much as can be had in an earbud).
In terms of frequency balance, the lows are surprisingly deep and clean. They are a bit mid-bass heavy though, and they lack the high-frequency sizzle that some people incorrectly perceive as "clarity". Cymbals may appear a bit recessed but could be augmented with a bit of top-end EQ in your player. Despite this the top end still delivers a lot of detail.
Vocals are especially good and the more subtle nuances of well-recorded acoustic instrumental tracks are nicely defined and rendered. Bass drums have good punch on the right recordings.
Overall I find them very satisfying for relaxed non-fatiguing listening over a good period of time.
They also seem quite efficient on my HTC Desire (not renown for their ear-splitting volume) ... for me they are plenty loud at about 50%.
The only thing I'm not sold on with them is the are a bit fiddly removing as where the cable enters the driver is shiny chrome plastic that is a bit hard to grip.
I use Monster Turbine for daily usage and these are the best in-ear headphones I've ever heard. They are really useful and bring natural highs as well as a good bass.
I prefer in-ears from Sennheiser (about 50.-) and normal, heavy headphones with heavy bass from Sony at home.
I don't think the Desire is all that great in terms of audio though, so I wouldn't spend to much there.

i recommend getting the on ear headphones from Energy Sistem DJ 400. My friend has them and he let me try them on my Desire and the sound is phenomenal If u listen at 100% u cant hear anything around you and also what music you hear all others around you can hear it too. Their price is around 12-13 euros in my country..
I use a set of Beyer Dynamic MMX100 In-ear phones/headset- excellent set of headphones, I find Sennheisers to be slightly too transparent/tinny and all Beyers seem to be slightly warmer- good enough for the majority of the music industry/music studios etc then good enough for me
They are usually £120 RRP, but if you look on Amazon.co.uk, one seller has them in stock and selling them for £79.99 with free delivery (Amazon currently selling them for £102.11).
for on-the-go earphones, IEM are the best. Off the bat, I would recommend something from Westone.
But since there is a budget involved, something from Ultimate Ears or Klipsch would be good.

I wouldn't go with these Sony ones. Reviews state the sound is brilliant, but then both ear pieces die in a couple of months.
I'm using some No Fear earphones, like stated before...Desire isn't an excellent audio device so I'm ok with them ^_^
Sennheiser CX 300-II Precision.
i-beats by dr Dre, best sound ever heard from earphones

Best way to spend $20 I've seen yet.
Can anyone please suggest a good headphone with extra bass and decent sound quality under 500dollars
Which is better senhieser or JBL or Bose?
Can I use the headphones while playing games and at the same time listening to music
You have to specify which type, over ear or IEMs. I'll just give a few IEMs that are good.
I'm currently using Shure SE215's which already IEMs . Though they're just entry level earphones in the Shure SE lineup, they are pretty darn good.
However, if you go higher up the SE lineup, they have the SE 315 and SE 535 which are better.
However, Shure isn't the best. There is Heir Audio, which from what I have heard is a beast.
I've listed a few IEMshere..
Westone 4
Heir 4Ai
UE900
JVC FX700
Sony EX1000
But if you want to find out more about best headphones, go to Head-Fi.com.

just picked up the LG HBS-730 from best buy and love them the sound quality is awesome, had them price matched at amazon for $53.50 what a deal!
supports APT-X for crisp sound and surprisingly good bass.
Klipsch Reference S4i ftw!
Need great ones with music controls...most of them don't control volume. Suggestions for earphones with volume controls?

Just keep in mind that not all earphones with low impedance will work on i9505, see this thread here.
A surprisingly good pair for 50 bucks or less would be the Brainwavz R1. Otherwise, if you've got cash burning a hole in your pocket, I highly recommend a pair of VSonic GR07 MK2. They'll run you about 180 bucks on Amazon and are worth every penny, but require a burn-in period to really make your purchase worth it.
The ones that come with the phone are actually pretty good. I got some comply foam tips for them and they fit great. The flat cable is really nice too.
Link to comply foam please?

Shure SE535 $440, SE425 $300, SE315 $200
Etymotic ER-4 $250
Westone UM3X $280, UM2 $225
Sennheiser HD 650 $500, HD 600 $400, HD 558 $160
AKG K702 $270
Starting from hearing aid products, long history producing musical equipment, actually do R&D for headphones, and those are recognized as reference headphones.
Do not buy
Beats, Skullcandy, Bose (overwhelming bass)
If you want a fancy looking one.. choose Sony MDR-1RBT.
I've owned several pairs under 175 and the best I've found are the $15 skull candy ones. Try those out before you spend more.

Overwhelming bass? The $15 skull candy that I have are very well balanced. Bose had so much bass you couldn't hear anything else.

Bose ie2 FTW. I use poweramp with them. Can skip tracks with the lil remote/mic. I wouldnt buy anything else.
I like the way the fit in my ear And when im out riding on my road/mtn bike the dont slip out when Im sweating.
For the guys who say they have overwelming bass, what are you using for a musicplayer? Any other headphones seem to be more on the 'treble' side for me.....
To each there own.
Honestly, aside from the VSonics and Brainwavz models that I already mentioned, I wouldn't consider Etymotic unless you need the hf2's remote. The ER-4 used to be great and I had a good ride with them, but stepped up to some Shure SE530s and the difference was night and day. STILL, I'd rather run the VSonic. Westone are nice if you can afford the audiologist appointment and custom molds, and I will personally NEVER run Bose, Monster, or Beats (btw, Monster=Beats and don't let anyone tell you otherwise...same build house and everything).
Need another clean, SQ-oriented set for around 60 bucks that you can legitimately work out with? Try the Sennheiser CX680. I ran the i variant with my 4S for a decent amount of time and they sound great with clean bass (not overemphasized), stay in place, are sweatproof, and don't start to hurt after 5 minutes of wear.
haha you need to check out NuForce NE-600X... They are Sound Isolating Earbuds. They are metal and for $25 on Amazon they sound better then any earbuds $100 or less.

Take any major magazine's reviews with a grain of salt, man. It comes down to the sound signatures you like best, after all. If you look at the popular choice for over-the-ear-budget cans (Grado SR60), they get universal acclaim. Put them on your ears, however, and most will hate the way they sound. Same with the B&O models you'll find at Apple stores. NuForce excels in DACs and headphone amps on the cheap, but I wouldn't put too much stock in their buds.
Been searching in multiple threads and found no definitive answer. I am a big fan of in ear headphones due to the magnitude of work calls, I take from my cell phone. Has anyone been able to find a good pair of in ear headphones with in line Mic and working controls?
I am not looking for Bluetooth headphones - trying to avoid one more device to charge due to my frequent travel.
I also travel frequently and I've been using these. They sound awesome and they work for both iPhone and Android which is perfect for me as my company makes me use an iPhone.
**I was going to post the link, but it's not allowing me. They are the a-Jays Five ear buds
Currently i'm using my samsung earbuds. they are ok. Don't love them and they work ok.
Last night there was a lightening deal for these:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YJS4RLM?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
I will get these tomorrow and see how they go.
I have the Bose QC 20 (Samsung model which is their Android compatible line) they work great! It has active noise canceling, volume +,- and play pause all work! They are pricey at $300 but well worth it for the ANC for a non audiophile
Waiting on my Glow headphones to arrive, hopefully they'll give a good experience.
Have a budget for these? I have tons of recommendations, but no use getting links for $200 headphones if you have a $40 budget.
I'm surprised no one brought this up but the Xiaomi Pistons are a pretty good pair of IEMs and is surprisingly cheap (you have to beware of knock offs).
Multiple people on XDA have praised the Pistons as well as audio websites.

The Sony XBA-A1 being my top pick in the list. Hybrid buds sound sooooo good. I had the RHA T20i and would highly recommend RHA.
Most of these headphones would be "fun" or warm sounding (bass emphasising) buds as that is what I enjoy for a daily driver. More natural or flat sounding headsets would be the Klipsch or Sennheiser sets.
I would love to recommend more balanced armature headsets, but none of the ones I've heard and liked can be had for less than $200. Westone and Etymotic, for example.
I hope that helps!

Sennheiser Momentum's in Ear confirmed to be working in this reddit post. https://m.reddit.com/r/Nexus6P/comments/3qsfx9/nexus_6p_headphone_compatibility/
The Klipsch R6m and Sony earphones are single button, and I haven't had an issue with them.
As for the RHA, you'll have to Google for that. I've heard they work on most Android phones, but it's so hit and miss.
I have the Sennheisers and they work perfectly

Not sure if you wanted headphones or earphones, but for the price these are very good and highly rated: http://amzn.com/B00AIRUOI8
Regarding over ear headphones, It is rather difficult to make a suggestion for you given the price range. I would normally suggest the VModa Crossfades, the Sony MDR-XB950BT, the Zik Parrots, or AKG 845BT to people depending on what they listened to or if they liked a certain sound signature. The AKG's are the least expensive of the bunch, and they usually start at about $150.
That said, here are some from manufacturers which I have had good luck with in the past:

I use the Jaybird BlueBuds X myself. It's worth the investment. Especially if you like to listen to music while exercising, and after experiencing multiple failed bluetooth headsets, including the LG Tones.
I am considering this Nakamichi model.

Since the Nexus 6P comes without headphones, I was wondering which headphones everyone is using, and how much did it cost them? Would you recommend them to others? If you have tried more than once pair of headphones (wired or wireless) which one would you recommend?
I'm using the XBA-A3's at work and on the go: http://amzn.com/B00FJISZ28 They use a hybrid driver - pairing both a dynamic driver with two balanced armature drivers to create a fantastic sound.
I wear them about 6 hours per work day. They are by far the best sounding headphones I own. That's saying something, as I also own Sennheiser HD 650's, AudioTechnica ath-m50x, Shure SRH-840, Blue MoFi's, and Vmoda Crossfades which I use with my laptop and various portable/desktop headphone amps/dacs.
In searching for the best earbuds, I purchased and returned the RHA t20i, Shure 425s, Sennheiser Momentums, B&W C5s, and Audio-Technica ATH-CKR10... none of which were bad by any stretch of the imagination. The Audio Technica CKR10s are the closest to the XBA-A3, in my opinion. The XBA-A3's have an edge in mid and high end clarity in my comparisons. Balanced armatures for the win. I also prefer the over-ear wire guide and detachable cables. Also, most of those listed above don't have an in-line mic, which the Sony's do have. So, the A3's won, and I'm loving them daily.

Sennheiser HD800's with a chord Hugo amplifier.
~$2200 and sounds wonderful. Would recommend it any day.
I've always used my Audio Technica ATH-ESW9 for whenever I'm away from my T1 at home. They're around $200 new and I got mine for $120 like new off of Amazon a couple years ago. One thing I've always like is the sound signature of the ESW9 deviates from the rest of the Audio Technica offerings, and it's an absolute joy for listening to acoustic instruments. Brownie points for using real wood too. Along with the durable lambskin leather, part of the reason why I prefer them for portable use, the ESW9 provide decent isolation without muting your surroundings when they're properly seated on your ears. Call me paranoid, but too much isolation is why I don't use earbuds; I see it as a hazard.
LG HBS-810, paid about $85, plus $15 for some comply foam tips. Can't complain.

Great to hear, fan of the bass myself... thanks for the post..
They're currently somewhere between Japan and Manchester
I'm using Sony MDR-EX650 Earphones with Brass Housing, Smartphone Mic and Control. By far the best in ear headphones I've ever bought, and I'm really hard to please when it comes to sound quality. The sounds take is incredibly open for in ear headphones. I can hardly feel them in my ears, the bass Is punchy without making the sound muddy. Fantastic, really glad I bought the 6p, and these headphones. Got them for £60 but can get them for around £40 online
Bose QC 20's ("Samsung Model" which is their Android version) All of the buttons work (vol+,-, play/pause) and it has ANC with an 'active button'. The active mode gives you mild noise canceling with enhanced speaking level tones for running/working out. I paid $300 for them this past summer and I don't regret it at all. I own 5 pairs of Bose headphones total (QC 20's, Freestyle, SiE 2's, OE 2's and the True Sound over ear ones)
Been using the latest xiaomi in ear pro these past two weeks, it is a hybrid : 1ba and 1 dynamic. Bass seem overpowered (i'm not a basshead), mid a bit high and buttons (mic n vol) works with my music player (black player ex), build quality is great for the price. I would recommend this Xiaomi (i got it for around $28 ) for 'on the go' earphones. For 'serious listening' i use my red Shure 535LE with black oyaide cable.
I'm rocking a V-Moda Crossfade LP2 - picked them up as open box off eBay for $99 and added the XL foam ear pads from V-Moda, also an eBay purchase. They sound ridiculously good, and the ear pads make these comfy af. The inline remote does NOT work though, but it worked on a Lumia - go figure, as Apple and MS have a patent deal. >.> Get with it Google! I miss pausing my music or summoning Cortana with the Play/Pause button on the cable.

I've got a few hooked up for different purposes, Grado SR325i are my hands down favorite for sound but unless I'm sitting still in a quiet room they're not so wonderful.
Realistically though, my MPOW Cheetah Blueetooth get the most play time. $16 on sale. They don't sound anywhere as nice as my RE0's (which I bought so long ago I don't remember the price, definitely more than $16 though), but the whole wireless headphone thing is just so darn practical and the battery life is good enough that I would definitely recommend them.
I've been using Audio-Technica M50x's ($133) around the house and Klipsch S4's ($99) or Jbuds ($35) while out and about. Very happy with all of them.
I use some jbl wireless in ears, bose qc 20s, and sennheiser momentum in ears.
Beats PowerBeats2 Bluetooth for cardio. Paid $100 on Black Friday. I think at $100, its pretty good. Battery life is amazing. Sound is decent. But I wouldn't pay full price for them.
Shure SE215 for everything else. Paid $100 for them.
Bose QC15 for flights which I haven't traveled much lately so its not used ah much. Forgot how much I paid. Maybe $300ish.
I also have Bose IE2, Audio Technician M50 but those are rarely used.

For wireless listening, I use a pair of Jaybird Bluebuds X. They work ver well and sound pretty good.
For wired listening, I have a pair of Klipsch S4is that I use when the BlueBuds are out of battery, and mostly for calls. My favorite pair are the Vmoda Crossfade LP2. The Vmoda give me the best sound out of all my headphones, but I don't like wearing them for extended periods of time. The Vmoda inline controller button does not work on the 6P by the way, and the same applies to many stock headphones for some reason.
I backed The Dash on Kickstarter two years ago and it looks like I should finally be getting mine in the next month or two. I'm very excited to get them to replace the BlueBuds, but Bluetooth sound quality will never match wired units.

Since the Nexus 6P comes without headphones, I was wondering which headphones everyone is using, and how much did it cost them? Would you recommend them to others? If you have tried more than once pair of headphones (wired or wireless) which one would you recommend?

Unless you are an audiophile, I will recommend the Mpow Wolverine: http://amzn.com/B017I50T0K. They are cheap and the sound is excellent in my opinion. Additionally, they work perfectly with "Ok Google" commands, I mean detecting the "OK Google", which I have found to be inconsistent with other wireless or wired headphones. The microphone is on the volume control bar, so it is closer to your face and phone calls are really clear.
I also own the Mpow Swift: http://amzn.com/B00PW3B194, which I bought first. These are not as good, the sound is not the best in my opinion. I use them at work to listen to music and news podcast, so I don't need real good sound, as I keep the volume very low. The microphone in this one is on the right-ear headphone, so people have trouble hearing me if it is windy.
PS: No, I don't work for Mpow, I bought them because I found them on sale, so I paid $9.99 for each one.
