mostly for just listening to music... what ya'll recommend?

I bought these half a year ago, Audio Technica ATH-MH40

They're not expensive, comfy and make for a nice sound. I'd buy them again anytime.

Sony MDR-V700. Had mine since about 2007. They're great.

akg 240

had these since 2003. no problems.
cat chewed the cable once and i just bought another cable.

thanks guys, yandomort is creepin me out right now

akg 240 - do these side swivel for one ear monitoring? reasonable price.

i think yandomort is a hero. i got a kick out of those videos. i hope he made em just for here.

This guy is making me laugh too.

like do the individual spekers flip outward away from your ear? no. do the slide behind your ear to the back of your head on one side for one ear cueing? yes. i just use them for making beats. but everything i listen to on them sounds good. their more of a studio headphone. i assume you asked about that for djing.

I've had a pair of these sony cans - they've lasted for 12 years so far. I've replaced the earpads once for $15. When you see someone on TV with headphones running some equipment, they normally have these. They don't have super hyped bass if that's what you're after.

Been spending at least 3 nights out of 5 with these headphones on for the last 5 years.
I'll buy another pair on the day they will die: confortable, reliable, and closed (for real: no sound will escape from these).
Such a reference, for me and for numerous studios around here.

akg, beyerdynamic, sennheiser...




wtf is sony?
