but yeah i didnt ask about your friend's college course in music, did I? i asked if you knew anyone at HARL or NAL....

seriously...the National Acoustics Laboratory in Australia does big moves and defines one of the 2 dominant hearing aid fitting strategies in the world ... a scientist from that lab could par your friend's music prof for hours and hours and hours without even getting out of his lawnchair

+1 for Koss, although wasn't the original post question- they aren't in ear. Also, they are really bad at blocking any external noise, so much so that they are useless for a london commute on the tube.

Honestly can't rate these enough as far as in-ear headphones go, only cost about £15, REALLY good bass tolerance (listened to 'blood on my hands' and it pretty much rattled my brain out through my nose) and they block out ambient noise well enough that i use them as earplugs when im drumming more often than i use my actual earplugs

Yeah, for christmas I'm probably going to get some good over the head or in ear ones. The only reason I get the in ear ones are for school. Its just a lot more convienient to be able to put them in my jacket then wear em around my neck and there's a lot less of a chance of them breaking. Its also easier to hide under my long hair in class cause the teachers are real anal about that

Its funny though, when I'm in class I see kids rocking those beats by dre in ears , and I'm dying inside, because my 70$ Klipsch earbuds have better bass responce than their 250$ beats. If your gonna invest in earbuds I would recommend those any day. Also they block out so much noise, when I'm walking in the hallways as long as I have my volume at 60% or more I can olny hear my music.

lol how old are you? there's SO many kids in my school with beats. usually over the ear ones. half of them don't even use them, too. they just wear 'em to look cool.

16, yea beats are everywhere in my school. I tip my hat to the people that are wearing those Sony headphones. Oh and Skrillex is everywhere too. The first thing someone will ask me when I have my music out is "You listening to Skrillex?"

also, what kind o' Klipsches do you have? their 'phones look ridicalous.

Havn't had any problems with these JVCs

Klipsch image S4. Those are the cheapest, the S4i have a mic and control for your iPod.

dont think ive ever spent more than 5 quid on a pair of in ears.... i only use them when im on the go just so i have something to listen to

yeah those s4's look good, although a little pricey. if i dont get an around the ear one, i might get those for chrsitmas
what do you think about these

or these

is it worth it to get the more expensive ones, or are they pretty much the same?
and do you think those or s4's are better?

I haven't used either of those, but the sony extra bass ones look pretty nice. Its really down to which you would prefer. I can recommend the Klipsch, but not the Sony ones. The only problem I have heard about the Sony extra bass line is that the highs can seem muddy. There is also the Klipsch S3 which are cheaper. Check out Klipschs site

Oh and I found the Klipsch S4 really cheap on amazon

thanks. does the driver diameter matter a lot? i mean, the s4's have an 8.5 and the s3's have an 5.8, but my skullcandy titans have an 11. i might return my skullcandy's and get those used amazon s4's, but not the s4i one.

Driver size somewhat matters. I also had the skullcandy titans, and the Klipsch S4 have much better bass. Even though they have a smaller driver, the bass on them hits harder than the skullcandy headphones.
