thanks

EDIT - I have a pair of Sennheiser MM 30i however the reason I'm looking for a new pair of headphones is because these ones keep falling out of my ear so I would like a pair that won't fall out.


What country do you live in?


London, England

Ishcabible wrote My friend's finally decided on either the Audio Technica ES10, Amperior, DT1350, or Z1000. I don't know how to help her much since the most neutral in the list is the Z1000 which may be too large for her, I didn't love the HD25, I've heard a lot of bad about the DT1350, and the ES10 is way too colored. I'm leaning on her getting the ES10 because they're the most entertaining, but I don't trust their durability.

This made me finally take a look at the ESW9A. From what I'm seeing after a few minutes, they look like they're worth considering. Not Neutral, but definitely fun and not offensive.

Stretch your budget 7 quid. It'll be worth it: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Head over to Best Buy! They miraculously have them on demo in the Magnolia section. I thought they were way too warm for me (which is a shame because I thought I'd love the tube-y sound they're said to have) but they're definitely worth a listen. I leaned my friend away from the DT1350, so she's choosing between the Amperior and the ES10--basically durability vs looks and sound.

Apparently my Best Buy sucks. Yours seems to have some actually good headphones, Generation's has tons of high-end computer stuff... I'm jealous. Mine has nothing at all.

I'll have a Big Mac.

And that sucks...are there any other Best Buys close to you? I guess a better question would be if there are any cities close to you. I sent my friend to one to try the ESW9 and K550 to see what sound sigs she likes. I kind of want to go to the one in Chicago to see if they have an HD800 for demo. The same friend's dad wants to buy one...maybe we can talk.

Speaking of the DT1350, anyone else got half their hair pulled out when trying to take it off?
