This thread will be about companys/corporations who have and/or make the best headphones. By BEST I mean everything from sound qualitydesign, durabilitycomfortably, accessories, and if their pricing matches the quality of the product.

Since i am a upcoming music producer. I have had the privilige of owning/trying several sets of headphones from labels such as.. Beats by Dre, Bose, Sennheiser, Sony, SkullCandy's, Pioneer, and Audio-technica.

I am sure most of yall are not crazy music lovers like me, But if you own or try'd a pair of Studio style headphones before, what do you think was the best brand of headphones you heard...

Please remember not to get Headphones mixed up with Game Microphones such as Turtlebeaches, Astros, ect...

So far my best headphone experience has been with a pair of Sony, I have 2 pairs of Skullcandy (a GI headset and a pair of Ink'd earbuds) and they've both broke within a month, the sound of the Skullcandy is really good tho, they're just cheaply made



Skullcandys are all I can afford ATM lol

Beats by Dre are great though.

I tried headphones and earbuds by Sony (both around 20€) which were both quite good, also Sony earbuds for 10€ which were like total crap. Furthermore I tried earbuds and SkullCandy's Lowriders. I have to agree on the good sound but crappy quality of the product, they break quite easily indeed.

I like the sound of Beyerdynamic headphones (at least the ones I tested), but you really have to test stuff like that yourself - everyone hears differently and has different preferences. I, for example, don't really like it when headphones sound too neutral - I prefer raised highs and lows and lowered mids. It's really a question what you want to use them for and what kind of sound you prefer.



 

They are usb only, but my Sound Blaster headset has some pretty amazing sound.
