I am looking for a nice set of headphones something that has good sounds quality and good bass response. I looked at some from Sennheiser, Skullcandy, Sony, Bose. but i am having trouble deciding on the best one. give me your input. If you have headphones from these companies let me know what you think of them. I have a set of skullcandy lowrider headphones and they are awesome but i am looking for something better. I looked at the Skullcandy GI headphones but i do not know how good they sound for the price. I know Bose is probably the best choice out of all of them as far as sound is but they also carry the largest price tag.

I have Ultimate Ear headphones and I think they're really good. They're certainly better than anything else I've used.

With music, price doesn't really correlate with sound quality. I'd suggest you look into reviews and music forums to find some reliable information. That's how my boyfriend found those UE ones for me (they were a present).

I just posted a thread on this a week ago. I went for the Sennheiser HD555's. Not a single bad review on them from Play.com and trying them out last night they work much better than I thought.

How is the bass response on these. Im looking for a good set of headphones that has a good all around sound i dont want anything with too much treble and not enough bass or ones with too much bass and not enough treble. How do you like the HD555's?

I have a pair of Sennheiser HD500's, afaik they have been discontinued but for in case you still wanted a opinion I think they are really nice with a good balance between bass and treble with not to much or to little. I prefer these over a few pairs of Bose I've used.

Sennheiser CX 95s if you're looking for in-ear canal phones, good all round response and there were some ridiculous deals when I got them, although even normal RRP is below $150

Although he didn't say he only wanted headphones he may just and not be interested in in-ear buds. If you are interested in in-ear buds I would go for Shure over all else.

I use Sony's MDRV700 headphones. I use them for monitoring when i am DJ'ing and that is exactly what they are designed for, but i have noticed a lot of people just wearing them as everyday headphones around town.

    • Ninja Theory was great until Microsoft acquired them. They let them spend a decade on two games, with a third on the way, that explore mental health and were OK interactive experiences. Sony appears to be able to choose better IPs to develop, particularly single player. I'm probably going to buy a PS5 just for Wolverine and God of War Laufey (which reminds me of Heavenly Sword when Ninja Theory was with Sony making games).
    • Good riddance to a terrible studio. They've done nothing but over promise features and fall flat with the releases they've put out.
    • hey buddy, i don't appreciate the attitude. Can't wait to see the results.
    • Marshall Major V Bluetooth headphones are now up to 47% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The Marshall Major V in Midnight Blue is currently $89.99 on Amazon, down from $169.99. That's 47% off and $80 saved on a pair of wireless on-ear headphones from one of the most recognizable names in audio. The Major V is Marshall's take on a long-lasting everyday headphone. The headphones deliver 100+ hours of wireless playtime, which puts them in a completely different category from most Bluetooth headphones that hover around 30-40 hours. You’re charging this thing once a week at most, and with wireless charging supported, you don’t have to worry about additional cables. Marshall promises its signature sound profile, with strong bass, smooth mids, and clear highs. There’s a customizable M-button, which you can set to quickly access Spotify Tap, your EQ settings, or a voice assistant. The design is foldable and lightweight at 186 grams, so it’s easy to pack for travel. And finally, the faux leather finish gives the Major V a sleek, premium look. At $89.99, the Major V Midnight Blue is a genuinely strong buy for anyone who wants a reliable daily headphone without paying premium prices. It’s also worth mentioning that the Cream and Brown variants are also discounted to $89.99, though from a lower original price of $99.99.
