What headphones do you use? - VGF

Greenpee · 03-16-2007, 01:17 PM

I'm curious, do you listen to music with headphones or speakers? What headphones do you use when you use them? Why? I use these: OTTO because they are cheap and durable and work well.

I use the kind that go on your head.

(WTF kind of question is this?)

***Ace Mercury*** · 03-16-2007, 05:20 PM

I just use the ones that come with my MP3 player. I'm not big on loud volume, so it works just fine.

At home: Speakers. Always.
At school: Usually headphones out of courtesy or out of the fact that my lappy speakers are cruddy.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Crappy Off brand JVC earpieces. Extra bass.

Ears: Sony EX71's, earbuds with silicon tips, wicked comfy and great sound for the forty dollar price-tag. Though they're a pain when doing anything phsyical. Might want to pick up a pair of cruddy over-the-head headphones.

Home: Bose SoundDock (I am a tool, but my dad dropped the dough, so I use it. ) And the PC speakers when I'm too lazy to fire up the Bose.

Home: Speakers.
Ipod: Ones that came with it.
Psp: Speakers.

At home I always use speakers. For my iPod I use the ones that came with it.

Brandon2390 · 03-17-2007, 07:42 PM

I have some great Sony ones that I use for Recording and just chillen out at home. Sometimes I use speakers at home also, which are just the dell ones that came with the computer.

***Ace Mercury*** · 03-17-2007, 11:26 PM

Anyone here have noice cancelling headphones? I've been thinking of getting some, but I wonder how well they work.

ShyGuy727 · 03-17-2007, 11:55 PM

Away from home, I use these "Gummi" earbuds I got at Circuit city for $10.

I have some noise canceling Phillips ones that are pretty good, but I kinda bent them and may have moved something around inside since I listen to a lot of dance music and crank the bass way the **** up.

So I've been contemplating about buying Stanton DJ Pro 3000s, Ive looked at them in the store and they seem worth the $120 dollars (especially since they have blue LEDs that blink to the beat!). I may try eBay.

jvc round buds

I have this old pair of tattered old cheap Sony headphones tha I cling to because they sound amazing.

Greenpee · 03-20-2007, 01:58 PM

I think it's interesting how some people care what things sound like and some don't. Like I use my Otto headphones for music, but I don't really care what my games sound like, even though I know there's a lot of sound design that goes into the games.

Greenpee · 05-11-2007, 03:25 PM

I just got e-mail from the company I got my headphones from (OTTO) and they gave me a discount code: FREESHIP. It's for free shipping and 10% off on either their bluetooth car kit or their headset with the mp3 player build in. Figured I'd pass it on.
