Because there's no reason to hold back and not create one.

Nothing to explain except this topic is for headphones users, so let's start.
  1. What kind of headphones do you use? In-ear, on-ear or over-ear?
  2. Who is the manufacturer of the headphones you use?
  3. What is the model of your headphones?
  4. What do you think of it?
And I'm the first to answer
  1. Over-the-ear headphones
  2. Sennheiser
  3. HD 201
  4. I've always wanted over-ear headphones to avoid the shit Mama plays in the car but Sennheiser is quality no matter the price so why not go for one? If it's quality, there is no holding back.

You can also mention any news regarding headphones, and you can talk about legendary ones like the Audeze LCD3, or even crappy ones like the Beats Pro (All Beats headphones are crap anyway). You can talk about headphones you used before!

On the note of "news regarding headphones" (goes to Otaku Culture): We're seeing the first prototype of the Axent Wear Cat Ear Headphones. HYPE

Over the ear headphones
Sennheiser

I love these headphones, excellent quality, great price, comfortable to the point where I can wear them all day long and forget I was even wearing them.

I haven't been able to wear any other headphones because Sennheiser has spoiled me.

Why would you want to buy Razer when there is better and cheaper headsets out there?

on-topic:
I have over-ear headphones
HyperX
Cloud
It is alright. affordable and comfortable. It shows signs of breaking such as right side having no sounds (usually on phone, not much on others).

What if you use more than one?

I have 2 pairs of on-ear and pair of over-ear headphones.

Sony
MDR-XB400
Very good for it's price. It sounds great with any device that I use it on. (even my laptop and it's bad sound card that somehow ruins the headphone output jack)

Sony
DR-BTN200
Like the one above, it sounds good, but it's somewhat lacking compared to the MDR-XB400. It's not as warm-sounding. Being a wireless device, it's battery is excellent. It can probably last for quite a while.

Skullcandy
Crusher
It's more of a gimmick with it's 'subwoofer' (Vibrating coils). Vocals sound distant. It's not the best, but it goes hand-in-hand with my phone's sound settings. My phone makes use of the 'subwoofer' to it's full potential giving a really powerful, sometimes too powerful, bass. (Great for head massages :v)

Aww yeah more than one :) The joy of having two great sets of headphones!

Just writing this because I'm a bit sad with this: The pre-included in-ear headphones I took from Papa (with Mama's permission) actually made the "quiet" "background" sounds (best example: Wonderful Rush) sound loud enough, even louder than my Sennheiser HD 201 :(

Pretty decent headphones and price, but it can make your ears feel a bit uncomfortable if you wore it for too long. Also, sometimes it can feel too bass-y or reverb-y.

i own 3 headphones lol

earbuds
Edifier
H185
this pair of earphones is pretty cheap. the sound is very very good for the price. my trustworthy walking companion

On-Ear
Pioneer
SE-MJ522
another cheap pair of headphones with great sound. the bass is a bit lacking. the vocal is pretty forward along with good detail of instruments. build quality does not seem all that solid though.

Over-Ear
Pioneer
SE-M521
this is my weapon of choice that sits in my house. the price is insanely cheap for the sound. overall a balanced pair. bass is sufficient, instrument seperation is pretty good. the vocals are not very forward. soundstage and positioning is great so i can enjoy FPS games as well as movies with great immersion. a real bargain.

Great headphones. Easily the most comfortable I've worn. Sounds great, not too expensive, and nice build quality. I'm also a big fan of the coiled cable

i'm not going to fill out the form

I use tutlebeach P11s. Decent headphones and while people have complained about the durability, they've been fine for me. Dual channels also works out super cool, especially if I'm streaming, because I can still be on skype and not have to deal with everyone hearing the conversation.

for outside use, I use honestly whatever headphones I happen to find i lose them so much it's not even worth keeping track of

some over-ear headphones that im too lazy to remember what brand/model it is.. just some cheap stuff(i don't buy big brands bec. for some reason, i break my headphones easily. after a few months of use they lose the sound and so i have to twist the cable to get the sound back.. )

I actually got them today, quality seems to be good, and I love the design. They cost me my precious 20euros so they better last longer than two weeks.

I use the earphone, which is in ear, but it is very uncomfortable because it keeps coming out.
I have that problem with all Samsung earphones, I prefer Apple's earphone.

But in some places, Apple earphone is overpriced compared to all earphones.

You're right, when I put on my headphones and play something, I am unable to hear anyone. It's just plain awful that we have to make sure we can hear our parents when we put on our headphones (open-back anyone?).

I love them! Just the right amount of bass, they're extremely comfortable (at least imo) and they're not even THAT heavy (or is it just me?)! Also, I swear that sometimes they're massaging my ears - mostly when playing Skyrim or listening to some bass-heavy song. And the mic is pretty good for a headset mic. ≤3

Who is the manufacturer of the headphones you use? - Skullcandy
What is the model of your headphones? - Skullcandy Jib 2, I think
What do you think of it? - These are definitely the best headphones I've ever used. They cost like 150 kroner here (15 pounds), but they're worth the money

What is the model of your headphones? - Logitech G230
What do you think of it? They can get pretty hot over my ears, but I think that is more of an over ear headset problem and less of a problem with the design. They are really comfortable and sound and feel the same as the more expensive G430 that I had before

  1. In-ear headphones
  2. Klipsch
  3. R6 (Black)
  4. Love the bass enhanced sound effect and it's really comfortable to wear on.
Never tried over-ears and on-ears. Used 2 sets of in-ear earphones before: one from Samsung phone and another from Walkman. The former one is so bad in quality that I can't even. The latter one causes my ear to be so painful in some kind of sense but there was no choice back then. And so the scenario kept on lasting until I get the current one.

I'm really happy that this thread exists tbh. At least people do care and concern about good and appropriate devices for listening to music.

Glad to have created the thread then. :) I felt like headphones had no place so I created this thread for the headphones users, to talk about what they are using, discuss some news (if any), and probably ask for what headphones to buy and are recommended according to the price range, audio quality, or even build quality, or other factors, if there will be anyone buying.

Speaking of recommendations, a Sennheiser Momentum (the wired ones) pair is good for those who are willing to go with their music to audiophile limits with ViPER4Android and ViPER4Windows, right?

It is technically impossible to reach audiophile limits with ViPER4Android - limitations from the DEVICES not the driver or certain pairs of headphones
ViPER4Android and ViPER4Windows are full audio drivers for their respective operating systems designed to TRANSFORM music

What do you think of it? Well, it beats my friend's Over-Ear Beats Studio(Gen 1). So I'm proud using it :) and its got good design, too!

The only drawbacks of my headphones is probably : the lack of detachable cable x.x so afraid it will break soon, but it already lasts 3/4 year and nothing happened but scratch on the earcups and a little unresponsive jack(spin it around and it will work again) :)
