Let's talk headphones.

Are these too flashy to be effay?

I was looking for some headphones I could wear in public (My ATH-M50s sound great, but ultimately are too big/ugly(?)). Normally I wouldn't be touching these overpriced beauties but I found some for half price.

Also how do you feel about beats?

>> No.5928098

beats have a bad reputation

as for head phones in general, i do not like them and prefer ear buds.

1. v-modas are ugly
2. m50s sound like shit
3. almost any full-size headphone will make you look autistic when you wear it in public

get some custom IEMs

/mu/ here, beats are horeshit and you are a pleb if you buy them. When I see someone with beats, I (as a music snob) assume they have no taste in music whats so ever.

besides hardly fashionable unless you a swagling.


overpriced and overbassed for overswag. Do yourself a favor and buy something that doesn't distort your music.

Yeah the V6s were the main competitor when buying my cans. Also the Grados are open back, wearing them in public essentially increases the chances of you being called an asshole tenfold.

I use the bose headphones sitting at the computer or doing studying. Despite being overpriced they are the comfiest headphones that I found which are also noise cancelling.

Exactly what I need for listening to music for many hours each day. the ATH-M50 gave me some serious headaches even after stretching them.

If I am just walking around, I go for earbuds because of they are easy. They must be the noise cancelling ones that use rubber to create a barrier to the ear canal. Otherwise you are destroying your hearing and you hear to much background noise.

I own these headphones and encourage them intensely. Only thing, they perish pretty fast so you might want to/have to buy different cups.

Beats are overpriced and horrible sounding, but they are pretty much the only headphones that look fashionable. Literally all of the headphones in your graph are rather ugly and I wouldn't want to be seen wearing them in public. You can listen to music with them at home however you want, but they aren't fashionable.

So to OP: Either get Beats or don't wear headphones at all and switch to earbuds. They're easier to carry around anyway. Of course both Beats and most earbuds have a shit sound but Christ if you want to hear crystal clear music you don't listen to it outside anyway.
