Ear/head phones...


Recommended Posts

Hello everybody - i am just here to ask about what good ear buds (not the big ones that go over your ears have good bass?

Personally i love bass, without it - i probably wont listen to music unless its trance/techno/and so on...

now i have the Logitech sound cancelling earphones...

i got them about a year ago and only got them to try out big earphones, and what i liked about them compared to the other ones is that they covered my ears so well and they were really comfortable... the only problem is (and this is why they stopped selling them) is because the rotating part of the earphones were holding on by this little string of plastic which brake very easily... happened to me but i just super glued and now its fine :)...

I dont mind if anyone posts anything about big ones with a lot of bass but i want small ones with a lot of bass because i might be using them in class when there is a work period and i dont want people to look at me the whole time lol... one choice i have so far is the v moda vibe and if you suggest something please give me a comparison with the logitech earphones i have, thank you :D

my price range is max 200 bucks...

I had the CX300s and returned them - the bass is strong, but boomy and the mids and highs were almost non-existant. Found the CX400s on sale for the same price online, and couldn't be happier (I've been told that the CX500s are the same buds, but a different cable config).

It's almost creepy to hear such a powerful, but *normal* bass sound and not feel it in any other part of your body. Gives me a subconcious desire to look around for the half-stack and kick drum in the room. :laugh:

Hello, i posted this before but ppl stopped responding...

so here i am again...

here is what i know so far:

budget is more or less 100 bucks

choices: (ONLY EARPHONES)

-sennheiser CX300

-shure se210

-sennheiser CX400 (if they have an improvement in bass from the cx300 and are better than the shure se210)

-v-moda vibe or bass freq (whichever has more bass)

-ultimate ear fl.5 extended bass (low chance, only if they have crazy bass that will blow my mind, and because i found it for a good price)

and if you can plz compare these to the ipod earphones and the logitech noise canceling headphones...

Best over-ear bass headphones which are a good price are Sennheiser HD 212 Pro's.

For in ear it is hard to say., since all I've heard are cheap ones, JVC HA-FX55's are pretty good on bass. :/

But I've heard for expensive ones, shure makes some good earbuds.

    • Of course the problem was Secure Boot's new certificates. Install media created by the official Media Creation Tool is already signed with a valid certificate from Microsoft, so maybe that certificate isn't "up-to-date" enough for machines with the new ones installed in the UEFI. There's really no other logical explanation.
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.
    • I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
