Portable Headphones?

[Nemesis379]

Im looking for a set of portable headphones, i have tried earbuds and in-ear headphones, its annoying because i have to keep repositioning them to fit in my ear to hear the music properly.

Looking for a £10-£30 cheap headphones which have decent bass.

Koss Porta Pro or Sennheiser PX100 (I prefer the former)

Bump any other ideas

you won't get anything better than the 2 already mentioned. i have the px100 myself and they're great little phones for the money.

+1 on the Koss Porta Pro. Great sound for such good price.

 

[Nemesis379]

Do the Koss Porta Pro leak much sound?

 

[Marsman]

Yes, both do.

You could look at some PX200's. Although they leak less than the other 2 mentioned, the bass is not as good, which probably isn't ideal if you are looking for some decent bass. PX200 MKII's are better than the PX200's, have but they are fairly expensive at £40-£50.

Aren't there any headphones that dont leak much sound (e.g. the person next to me on bus can guess what song im listening to), and has decent bass?

AKG K81DJ or AKG K581

 

[Nemesis379]

Whats the difference between the K518 DJ and K518 LE?

 

[Shamrock]

I think LE is just the "limited edition"

 

[Nemesis379]

Are the K518's the best for my price range? (Before I make my final purchase).

Edit: Nvm ordered them

JVC HAFX1X without a doubt.

I have ultrasone pro 900's, considered to be the daddy of dubstep/electronica headphones.

Well those little jvc's at £20 a go, do a very impressive job.

They're very bassy, very muddy at first, but when broken in after 50 hours the sound really opens up and the sound becomes less muddy.

For the money they are a bargain basement iem i highly recommend.
