Thread: Need New Headphones

I need to get myself a new set of headphones and was wondering what you guys use. I have a really good pair I bought when I had the stupid idea of starting a poker radio station but they make my ears sweat after about 1/2 hour.

The Bose Beats look really good but I don't want to spend $500+ on headphones.

What do you guys use?

I don't rate the beats headphones very highly - when it comes down to it, i think you're paying for whats trendy at the moment.

These are killer
Sennheiser PRO 380

Once they go on, I can't hear anything outside.
They cover the entire ear.
There is no sound leaks, so you can turn it up and not disturb anyone else.

It's definitley a "sit at table" set of headphones.


For traveling, and when I am moving around I use these.
Shure 215
.. I can't fault these, the more I wear them, the more I love them, the sound quality is amazing. When music with Bass kicks in, it just brings a smile to your face.

The Shure 215's are the cheaper ones too.


Both cost me $300 individually at the time, the Shure buds get up to about $600 i think.

Thanks, I'm going to see if one of the local stores carries the Sennheiser Pro's for me to test out. I found them online for under $200 which amount as much as I'm looking to pay.

I have a nice set of buds that one of the poker programs sent me a few years ago. Somehow I've managed to not break them yet.

I think you will really enjoy them. I wish it had a long cord, rather then a curly one. Thats my only gripe.. because.. I do roll around in my chair a lot - chair-stanics
