Headphones

[M22 Blue]

I've got a pair of Monster Turbine in ear headphones, they set me back 140 at the time, best investment I've ever made, nothin else I've tried comes even close to the sound these babies kick out. The Sennheiser CX range are good value for money and have quite sturdy build quality too.

Another question: is there a big difference in sound quality between the standard iPhone earphones and say, a pair of £30-£40 Sennheisers? I've noticed they make them with inline mic and iPod controls and was wondering if they're worth the money.

i'd have to say the old 'you get what you pay for' addage applies very well to headphones (bar those Dre/Gaga monstosities,which are good but not Bose good)...having worked in an industry where the iphone h/phones kept getting replaced for both quality and comfort reasons i'd use any other than theirs....we had many Skull Candy's returned too

Sennheisers are excellent headphones. I use the cx300's. Can be usually picked up for about £15-£20 on amazon. About double the price from other places

Just make sure they are bought direct from a trusted place. Lots of fakes getting sold on eBay and other places

Good headphones. I upgraded to the CX300II, and you can pick them up for around £20 online. Brilliant headphones, and I haven't had a single problem with them.

My SkullCandy earphones were only £7 in the sale and are perfect.

He seems to be fine with the quality, just that he keeps breaking them - it isn't down to the make or price range.

It is something you are doing - headphones don't consistently break like that
