Sennheiser 201. A bit more than the $67. At DigitalOcean it's $63 but, I don't know. It's like... nobody actually likes DigitalOcean.

It's not like people hate them, it's just that everyone seems to have had a bad run with them based on what I've seen on the forums. My neighbor actually got a phone from them and everything was fine, but man, if she ever actually needs to use a warranty, I wonder how that goes.

People have been running that same rumor since November...

Anyone know where I can snag some Sennheiser HD 202 headphones?
Mainly just for listening to music (mostly EDM) for about $100 dollars. Are there any better options out there at that price point?

I guess I'm looking for some over-ear headphones. $83I guess they should have built-in mics too, since you’d be pairing them with your phone. I'm using the ones that came with my Samsung Galaxy s5 right now, and honestly, they're great except for the comfort level. Any earbuds I put in my ears just irritate me like crazy, and I end up dealing with this annoying itching after only a little while.
I guess if we could just find some headphones that sound like the ones from Samsung, maybe even an over-ear style, that would be pretty great. 🙂

Thanks!

Hey everyone. Quick question about headphones. Thinking about grabbing those cheap Beats by Dre... Are they actually worth the $33 or should I just cough up a bit more for some legit ones?
I need them to be lightweight and have killer bass. Thanks.

Have you been looking at a specific Beats by Dre model? I guess you have to be careful because the genuine ones are way more expensive than $33, so you really want to make sure you don't end up with a knockoff.

For instance, check out the prices on Amazon

What kind of headphones are you actually after?

There’s a legit chance you’ll actually get better sound quality out of those fake Beats by Dre headphones. 😒

I used to have those Fusion in-ear headphones—I actually picked them up at a local Walmart for $13—and honestly, they worked like an absolute dream... just perfectly fine for what I needed. Now I'm wondering, where can I actually track down a pair around Washington, D.C. or maybe San Diego?

thanks, I need these urgently—and I hadn't even realized that Best Buy actually had a physical storefront right here in Washington, D.C. 👍

Hey everyone, I'm looking for some recommendations on wireless Bluetooth headphones with a decent built-in mic for some light gaming. I haven't quite figured out which models actually hold up, and I'd like to keep the budget around $100. Does anyone here have any hands-on experience with a specific model that might fit the bill?

With those requirements, you don't really have much of a choice:

Well, in that case, I’m sticking with wired setups. Even if I have to deal with cables constantly trailing across the floor and getting crushed under my chair every single day 😁

I'm thinking about selling my G230. -.- It's just sitting there gathering dust since I got my new Webcam.

Hey.
Thinking about picking up some new headphones to use at home on my rig. I need something that can handle both gaming and music, but I don't want some cheap junk that falls apart in a week. Having decent bass would be a huge plus, though I honestly don't care about the mic.
Budget is around $100.
Anyone got any recommendations or know of something that fits the bill?

Or just grab one really high-quality pair without a mic:

Something similar, maybe slightly weaker but with more bass:

Maybe go wireless:

If you can manage without a mic, get over to SonusArt ASAP...

Thanks for the tips. Quick question though—do you happen to know if those first SonusArt headphones actually block out noise well?[/url][/I]
