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.

    • Autonomous post-training loop placed 8th of 4,000 and then rewrote its own evaluation strategy. An autonomous AI system built by researchers at Amazon's A-EVO-Lab completed a full post-training run on a 30 billion parameter NVIDIA Nemotron model — with no human in the loop, across four rounds running over multiple weeks — and then did something its designers had not planned for: it detected that its own internal evaluation metric had become misleading and redesigned the search strategy it was using to improve itself. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319123/20260626/nvidia-ai-trained-itself-30b-model-corrected-its-own-broken-metric-mid-run.htm

    • If Ford would stop hiring SUITS to run the company, and put CAR GUYS back in charge perhaps they could do better. Heck, the only CAR they produce today is the Mustang. Hey Ford! Not everyone needs/wants an overpriced SUV or pickup truck that is so tall you have to have a step ladder to get in and out of it.
    • Amazing how some will just jump all over something. Probably the same people that thought Musk was a "tech god" before he saddled up with "bad orange man". Before, they worshiped at his feet, including a lot of so called hollywood types. Now, because he fell off the plantation truck, they toss him under the bus.
