Looking for a good pair of headphones. I'm looking for over the head style, big enough to surround my ears, wired or wireless doesn't matter.

I used to wear these for a couple years, but they stop selling them now :(

So yeah, what do you wear or recommend getting? I don't need anything too special, looking for under $50 and wont kill my ears! Mainly using for music and gaming...what else.

Well, Bose makes really really good head phones. The sound is CRYSTAL clear. But, since your budget is below 50 dollars, I would recommend the brand Sennheiser.

10 bucks over your budget, but with your kind of budget, that's as good as its going to get...

Look through that page and look at the reviews.




I'm going to buy these headphones

Yeah logitech sucks.


David, how did you get them for free? With your cell phone?


And when it comes to sound, I don't like to skimp at all.

I would not recommend any Sennheiser, I had one for barely a year before it began fucking up. The quality is alright, but you look like a jackass nazi wearing it.

LOL, as long as they are comfortable, i care less about looks. I didn't enter the headphone pageant this year. Any headphone can crap out in a year.

I shouldn't have said it that way. Their keyboard and trackball I have are great, but when it comes to their sound stuff, it lacks quality big time. The headset I got are about ruined, the sound on them sucked since the day I bought them. I also have speakers from them, they make horrible buzzing noise and lack sound quality big time.

Plaz - He said he wanted DJ headphones (kind that surround your ears). So they are going to look "nazi like".

I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about the unnecessary use of the "band" (lack of a better word) that the actual earpeices connect to. There is always a space the size of kansas between your head and the "band" that you could fit a cat through. Plus...wtf is this?? NAZI I SAY!
