Which new headphones?

Post by BazinBlack »

Morning All,

The earhones on my iTouch is just about to give up the ghost (what does that mean :? ) and I will be looking for a new one. Is there one that anyone could recommend? The sound on the iTouch is not brilliant, but is there a earphone out there that will improve on the quality?

Many thanks,

Bazza

I bought the Shure SE530 earphones about a year ago and they blow away any other earphones in the market. The sound is amazing on the ipod. They are pricey though, but a good investment. 8)

Cheers Dan,

just had a look online and I am sorry to that £210 :shock: is a bit too steep for me at this time.

I've used these ones for about 6 months now, not too pricey, and their quite good at blocking out the rest of the worlds noise, as well as keeping the music your listening to quiet to everyone else, no more than £20 on the Argos site, but you could probably find 'em cheaper.

Another Shure user here (Shure E4C)
£250, won em in a competition 8) you can get reasonable sounding cheaper ones (£30-£40) though but they lack bass of earphones like the Shure E4C's.
Shush this is serious

These guys know what they are on about - I also recommend Sennheissers and Shure - you only have to go into a half decent recording studio to find out what makes they are using there.... and it is these!
