Yes. Inexpensive, too.

There are people who use headphones?
-
Bose is extremely overpriced/overrated. Sennhiesers are the brand to get.

try sitting in a cubicle and hearing all the annoying older people around try to discuss whats hip, their kids, menopause, music, ETC>
when designing....there is no better escape, then headphones..and some kick ass music.
the ones i have now kick ass. i cant hear a damn thing...and the music listening quality is pristine
i have looked into Sennhiesers, and will look more.

the bose are like putting clouds on your ears. i had those sony's too, and they are designed poorly. the little hockey puck ear pads hurt like hell. the bose fit snugly over your ears, and create a sound proof room inside your head. its almost air tight. they are ultra light, and i forget they are there.

Ear buds are fine ... so long as you never turn your head or move any part of your body that's in contact with the cord.

stress the "to look at" part of your post. A grand for headphones? Seriously Wayne Newton, chill out.

These are the best headphones I've ever owned:
http://www.amazon.com/Koss-KSC75-Portable-Stereophone-Headphones/dp/B0006B486K/ref=pd_bbs_2/105-2040494-8956468?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1188182218&sr=8-2
Cheap, easy on your ears, get the job done.

Someone destroyed my sennhiesers for studio, so I'm looking to get new ones. I'm thinking http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000065BPA/ref=ord_cart_shr/002-3246522-2324833?%5Fencoding=UTF8&m=A2JUPN4BTA3CZV&v=glance

Good luck with your buds.
-
Are the bose really that sweet? Reviews say otherwise...but you get the music snob image with bose imo. You can't put a price on that.
-
the bose reg. headphones are fantastic.
i kept them and sent the others back. earbuds just arent for me.
the sennhiesers were nice though.
im not trying for the snob effect..i just want to drown out the f'n annoying co wokders.

(http://www.moogaudio.com/store/prodimages/stanton/djpro3000-b.jpg)
Terrific except for the goofy novelty LED's.
-
Shure makes good headphones.
-
Shure are very nice.
Bose are to music snobs as Bud Select is to beer snobs.

You're talking about "triport" right?
-
I listen to music all day at work, and I have a hard time justifying spending $20 (or more) on headphones.
-

well, mainstream music snobs.

I should add that these treads are really annoying when people only post pictures of the headphones they're interested in.
It's usually a pain in the ass to find what you're showing.

yeah. but they call both the big ones and the buds tri port. the ones i pictured on top...are the best. cover the whole hear...and deliver a great mix of high's and lows. i only got them as a gift..no way i'd spend that much cheddar.

Yours were actually easy to find. But you actually went through more work yourself to post the pic than you would if you'd just given a link.
Not very efficient.

+1 - Get some HD 650s, they're probably the best headphones on the planet and you can find 'em for three bills online. Don't forget to thank me later. :eyeseeyou:

anyone have the xtrememac fs1? pretty good reviews. the inside of my ears are shaped differently, so regular earbuds suck, and these are the same design as the marshamallows.

These are the best bang-for-buck you will find in in ear phones.

Yes, relative to what you are looking for it is. It is probably the very least you can pay for a "quality" headphone. I also have the jvc marshmellows and they are good for what you are looking for. I have never heard of the ones you linked so I can't comment on them. You family is loaded right? Have them get you some good ones to go along with your new TV.

i've wasted too much on headphones that i eventually never used.

I got them for $50. Great headphones. By far the most comfortable I've had.

thx. exactly what i needed.

- the jury is out -
marshmallow's are pretty sweet. it pretty much cancels out outside noise too. sound quality is meh i assume (probably compared to other canalphones), but anything sounds good when it's pressed against your eardrum. good stuff saul, i like jews better now FWIW.
zion by lauryn hill sounds great.

I got a pair of these $50 Sony earbuds. The cord's a little funky and some folks might not like it, but I really like the sound quality I get out of them, especially for the price.

can't stand two wires. need wrap around headphones (even if they don't look cool, or do they?)

I think they do look cool. Usually just more bulky to carry around, right? Am I thinking of the right "wrap around" type?

Creative seems to have really good deals on SSD mp3 players and headphones. You can get the Zen 16gb for, like, $150 at a lot of places which is a really good deal imo.

Just mpegs. but there's a program out there that makes it real easy to convert/fit your screen. I have it at home and don't feel like looking for it now.

That's fine. I just want something to make my 80gb Zune play divx/xvid without having to convert to mp4. Would make my pirating life a lot easier.
