You can EQ the bass down. If you have an iPod Touch, you can buy EQu to do that.

But for $100, there's the Creative Aurvana Live!, Koss DJ100, KRK KNS6400 (might not have enough bass), and AKG K181.

Arn't the AT m50s good? for my music preference?
Also my friend wants a gaming headphone for his ps3 his budget is 300$
Thanks!


If you can find an M50 in your price range, by all means, get them! I haven't been keeping too much track of its prices. Last time I checked, they were $150, so I didn't even think of them. Even though I'm not its biggest fan, it'll beat out most of those for your music choices. The K181 is iffy, but the M50's will be more comfortable; the KRK's sound a bit better, but they aren't as bassy if you like a lot of bass.

For your friend, the AKG Q701 is among the best headphones you can get for gaming. He'll get called a hack for sure.

Your friend can probably get a Mixamp and mic for around $300.

If you want an IEM, look at the Fischer Audio Eterna (These are available from Frogbeats). There's also the Hippo VB from Jaben if you want the most bass possible. I've heard these, and the bass is just absolutely astonishing. Otherwise they're only decent, but they're good at doing what they're made to do.

The Creative Aurvana Live and Sony XB700 are two good bassy on-ear options in your price range.

I don't think the Mixamp is powerful enough for the Q701. I've had this come up before, and I think the Audio Technica AD700 would be better. It has the same redeeming qualities for gaming that the Q701 has, but it's cheaper and easier to drive. There's also one of the few good "gaming" headphones out there, the Sennheiser PC360.

Not sure. I don't know about the lower-end Sennheiser gaming products, but the higher-end ones are actually fairly good.

No, and I explained why in the OP. What's your budget and what are your music preferences?
