$50 headphones?

[diduknowthat]

I'm looking for suggestions of around the ear full size headphones at the $50 price range. I'm using a giftcard so the price cannot go over $50 shipped. Any ideas?

 

[daisymtc]

you mean full size headphone? And what shop are you going to order from?

I'm not looking for gaming headset. I have bestbuys and microcenteres around my location but I would preferably order online.

I was taking a look at the Sennheiser EH-150,

I'd recommend Skullcandy as well, but their support sucks. A few other people on this forum experienced it, as well as everyone else who comments on them anywhere else. I had the Hesh headphones, bought them in Dec 08, the earcup support started to break, thus snapping them around March 09, I contacted them (well within my year warranty), and never got a response. I sent several ones over a few months. I even think the complaints are on the BBB.


Anyways, don't mean to take this OT, or turn it into a rant, I'm just strongly against Skullcandy. So I wanted to send out a warning.

I'm also taking a look at the jvc ha-rx700. It got a lot of thumbs up in another forum.

Those Sennheiser EH-150's are nice phones and very comfortable. They also come with a ridiculously long cord. I have used them as workstation headphones around my office for a while.

If you use them frequently, though, you will want to get extra pads as they deteriorate quickly. If you are picky about the size adjustments, you may not like this particular model's method either.

AKG has a nice set for around that range.
