headphones to choose?

Post by fjettolf » Sat Sep 29, 2012 7:38 pm

hi!

Was wondering if anyone could tell me what headphones i should choose for my music production? Ive allready tried the beats by dr dre and i absolutly thougt they were grat, but a bit expensive. Is it possible to get same quality, only cheaper? Or is it possible to get better for the same price?

thanks for help!

AUDIO TECHNICA ATH-M50 THE BEST HEADPHONES FOR AROUND 150.00$ and if you can't afford those....the M30'S aren't too bad either for about 60.00. but i would try to get the M50'S
i love the video "i fink you freaky" by die-antwoord where they smash the dre. beats headphones....too funny.

I love my Shure SRH840's. I've had Sennheiser and Sony in the past and I love these the most. I do want to try the AIAIAI's Studio cans.

Hi there :D

For me its Beyerdynamic DT250's,great sound .and so comfortable!!Like wearing slippers on your ears,ha,ha,

If you can,pop down to your local music store and try different pairs on for comfort,etc and then shop around.

Buying my headphones,online in a music store saved me a fair bit of money :D

+1 while imho, not as natural sounding as the M40fs that I've used for years, but I like it for the musicality and bass sound. Mine is the ATH-M50s/LE.
