Amazing headphones

[themightycat]

So had the s3 for a few days now but only tried the headphones a few hours ago and I gotta say I'm amazed at the quality. It has very nice bass, which I've never had in regular headphones before. I've always had the cheap 5-10 dollar headphones and I never knew how good they could be. And these come with the phone!

I was playing league of legends with them and sound effects sounded amazing. I'm guessing that's why people buy dre beats? Except this isn't overpriced, paying for the brand, headphones.

Yup, easily the best in box pair I've used...ever I think.

I actually thought they sound worse than the ones that came with my original galaxy s, and a LOT worse than the high end UE's I normally use. They're still decent for a bundled accessory, but they're nothing to call home about. Just my two cents.

 

[Brianaro]

I don't like them at all

Ones that came with my Captivate were really good and used them up until a month ago when they walked off from my desk. Now I've got some Klipsch s4a buds and am highly impressed. Picked them up for $60 from Sonic Electronix, which was about $30 less than everywhere else.

If you want some really good headphones on the cheap, you can't beat these for the price:

And this is coming from someone who also has these:

I know these are going to be a bit pricey, but trust me its worth it. (ive tried other ones in the same price range , these are the best that deliver in every category)
Delivers bass (but not to the point where it drowns out the music), delivers sound quality and clarity like you havent heard before (but you can hear every other element in the back and still have bass)
it hurts to listen to music with anything else
Ive owned the previous version of these (530), and since 2008 ive only been pleased.
Currently i have the 535 (latest version)

those are ridiculously priced! 449.00 off of amazon geez

i knowwww, but ive tried using even the 100 dollar bose ones, and the 100 dollar shure ones.

regardless none deliver like this one.

the way i looked at it was : im always listening to music, always at my desk, always using headphones. Why not get something that will MAKE me want to actually sit and do work and enjoy it. And plus whats the point of paying 50 dollars every couple of months cuz the headphones broke? These have a warranty and every year i send them back and get new ones and that warranty gets extended.

its worth it.

Are you a meelectronics user yourself? Nice! I am too, but I have the M6P's with the built in phone controls. I have yet to find a pair of IEM's that cost twice as much as these that can compare, certainly nothing at this price point or below.

And the eartips can be swapped out for the "marshmallow" type, Comply T-400's, commonly found on JVC Marshmallow IEM's.

If we're going to toss in some high end IEM's, I'll throw mine in the circle as well.

http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-IE80-Headphone/dp/B006EK9J9S/ref=pd_cp_e_1

If you like hip-hop, trance, or anything that needs a good quantity of solid bass. These are it.

If you like really wide soundstages. This is also it.

It has a screw on each monitor you can turn for more or less bass as well.

As the Head-fi saying goes, sorry for your wallet if you decide to get either, but your ears won't be sorry.

 

[incubus26jc]

LOL, this is gonna sound dumb but, I bought some ear buds from Big Lots the other day for 5 dollars. They were impressive. As long as I don't try on a good pair to compare, I'll be good.

That said, the GS3 comes with a pair right?

perfect way to say it (headfi)
i had these , and as you said, for bass intense it will be these, i ultimately still ended up keeping my shures, felt they were a little clearer
but u cant go wrong either way. :good:

I can't wear in-ear phones for more than half hour.
How can you guys do that?
I use Audeo PFE.

My go-to earbuds for a couple of years now have been the Razer M100, now called the Moray:
http://www.amazon.com/Razer-In-Ear-...hones--Black/dp/B001HN6PBM/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8

They show up on Woot every once in a while for $15 a pair and I get 3 and give a pair or two to friends and family. I've tried a lot of earbuds over the years, and even at $30-40, these are about the best-sounding ones I've found. They isolate outside noise well, have really good bass response, clear sound overall, and the small size makes them easy to wear without them getting knocked loose.

Definitely worth checking out if you're shopping in that price range.

+1 for Comply. Have them on my Super-fi 5 Pro's. Very comfortable but you have to change them out every now and then when they get too dirty.

On my IE8 I'm using Sony Hybrid Tips.

They are very comfortable.

yes, they some with some and from what I have experienced, they aren't too bad. i mean if you are just using them to work out or study like me then they are good. Also, i just got these below and i love them and they're not too expensive.

At my desk, I'm still using an old pair of Sennheiser HD590's open-ears through a Fiio headphone amp. For non-amped in-ears I've switched from my broken Shure's (which sounded amazing) to the still-highly rated Klipsch IMAGE S4's.

The Klipsch's sound really good, but they do have just a tad too much bass, but at least they're no where near the huge amount of bass that BeatsByDre gimmicky crap imposes.
