What's up everyone? I need some suggestions on what headphones I should buy. I keep buying headphones all the time that break for various reasons, so I need a good pair that I can use for a long time. I don't want to spend $200-300 on an expensive pair either, but I wouldn't mind spending up to $100 for one. Anybody have any good brand of headphones I should look at?

For 100 even you can get Grado Sr80s. Add 25, and you can get Sennheiser Momentum on ears. At 150-160 you can get Sennheiser HD598s or, for something different, Audio Technica ESW9s.

Lot's of good options around that price point.

If you want earbuds, the Shure se215's are great and right at $100.

Why do I need expensive headphones?

I love to buy shite, but have always used these cheap earbuds designed to stay on your ear while running. I also use them on planes. If I am not running or on a plane I just use regular surround sound speakers in the living room or my bluetooth speaker outside or while travelling.

When are you guys using these fancy headphones?

1MORE Triple Driver In-Ear Headphones with In-line Microphone and Remote...$99.99 from Amazon.

LINK

quote:

THREE DRIVERS- these headphones have two balanced armatures and a separate dynamic driver. Together they deliver an extremely accurate listening experience with unsurpassed dynamic power and clarity from deep bass to sizzling highs.


quote:

INTELLIGENT CONTROL TECHNOLOGY- in-line remote control is compatible with iphone, iPad and Android, allowing you to conveniently control volume, select songs, and take calls. Superior MEMS microphone has independently set ground wires to eliminate cross-talk and background static.


I've owned just about every brand and type of headphones known to man and these headphones are unbelievable. I've compared the 1More against a $500.00 pair of Westone Clear AM Pro 30 Ambient Triple-Driver headphones a friend of mine has and I actually liked the 1More better; it actually has a mid-range and the $100.00 price tag doesn't kill you.

My go-to recommendation for this question is always:
Sennheiser HD-280PRO, or whatever new product name they have in that niche.

Comfortable, sound great, excellent passive external noise reduction.
