I really like the sound of these ones and they aren't super
expensive white noise cancelling super 169 dollars or
something:

aiwa hp-x222

I'll probably buy this exact kind again when I get new ones.

they sound good and weren't that expensive (i think 120€
is already too expensive so..)

cant go wrong with sennheisers imo.

i got a pair of hd570. nice clean sound, very
impressive. the comfort is hard to beat. the only thing i
dislike is that theyre 'opened' headphones, so anyone
sitting near can hear the music out of these headphones.

i also have a pair of hd265. these are 'closed', so
the sound doesnt escape. a little less comfortable than the
hd570 though. and the bass is a bit too loud. apart from
that, theyre by far my favorite headphones.

Got myself a pair of HD280 Pro. They are gigantic, I look
like a fool in the subway but they have an isolation of 30db
therefore it's like a pure heaven of tranquility wherever I
go.

They lack a little in bass presence, but the bass is fucking
deep. I wish it had it's mid-bass a little more present
(even after 200 hours of play). Some Autechre stuff just
don't sound the same unless I EQ' the CD player (which I
do). My older Grado Labs headphones, while being open,
therefore not good for outside listening, they have great
bass presence all around the low spectrum. No need for EQ.

i used sennheiser eH 2270 when i lived at my parents because
my dad had them. I really miss them. Can't say anything
bad about them though i think they broke somehow. burnt out.
really comfortable.

i like the koss portapros.
especially since i can wear them under my bike helmet

they do sound great though and are small and pretty cheap.
not really the class of the sennheisers you guys are talking
about, but i mean i dont know how much that matters when
youre out and about listening to a portable or something.

Hahahah
Those just look ridiculous. Especially for like 900
dollars. Might as well just get some fucking speakers
dude.

Anyone have experience with sennheiser 600 or 650 vs.
beyerdynamic 880?

I have the Big Big Headphones.... I wouldn't use any other
ones.
I hate when the sound is crap and when the headphones have
to go inside your fucking ear. I prefer the huge stuff,
with extra cushion for comfort.. And the kick arse sound.
:) I don't mind looking silly while i walk in town.
