What sort of headphone do YOU use?

BoomAM · 13 Feb 2006 at 02:05

Hi.
I was wondering what sort of headphones all of you lot use on your respective musical devices.
Mainly out of curiosity really.

Myself, i use some normal headphones, some MX500s. None of the inner ear stuff.
Im not keen on the large ones that you often see in music videos, or the ones that wrap around the back, or over the top, of your head either, as im fairly convinced that i'd look a pratt in them.

You lot?

I mainly use Sharp MD-33s when I'm out and about, but I use Etymotic Er-6i's when im at home or working.

Grados RS-1's.

EX71's

EX71s here. Saving up for a pair of Shures to see what all the fuss is about

Sennheiser HD 25-1, Grado SR80, shure e2c's.

First 2 for home use and the third for outdoor.

E3C's

Grado SR80s in the house. Superb, but I'm gonna move up the Grado range at some point.

Out and about I still use the cheap headphones that came with my Sony NW, although I'm looking to replace them currently (looking at Senny MX550). Tried some EX71s but they were horrible and went in the bin.

AKG K-240 in the house... Koss Porta Pro or Sennheiser MX500 out and about... depends whether I want sound quality or portability.

Codmate · 13 Feb 2006 at 15:33

DT100's because they last forever and are easy to buy replacement bits for.

Sennheiser HD-595

HighlandeR · 13 Feb 2006 at 16:36

Senn HD-595s

Considering the Audio Technica ATH-A900 already though

ray · 13 Feb 2006 at 21:00

Audio Techica CM7ti when I'm out and about.

Sennheiser HD650's at home.

Stellios · 13 Feb 2006 at 21:06

Pair of cheap Sonys at the minute, although some E2Cs are a very tempting prospect.

DannyW · 13 Feb 2006 at 21:09

budget Sony MDR-XD200's not bad for £20

Big Kev · 13 Feb 2006 at 21:14

Shure E4c's with my iRiver.

Bigsy · 13 Feb 2006 at 21:25

Super.fi 5 Pro, best canalphones going imo.

tom_nieto · 13 Feb 2006 at 22:00

Sennheiser HD575s, although quite rarely atm. No real need to use headphones in my house and out and about I use my phone headset.

Curio · 14 Feb 2006 at 00:27

Sennheiser EH250's for my PC - that's where I listen to my music. Then the missus has some Sennheiser PX100's for her Creative MP3 player.

E5c's.

I've only had them around a month and they are getting better and better, must be this burning in thing everyone mentions taking effect.
