A good pair of headphones

Those rings, 2-rings don't work for newer Apple products anymore... is gay, they make you buy theirs.

Source? I really don't believe you, must have been busted headphones or something.

 

[thewrongvine]

No real source, just experience I guess. All my headphones and my other friends with older 2-ring headphones, they never work on newer iPhones or iPods, sometimes they don't even fit in the jack properly. I might be wrong, but for me at least, only the new headphones that come with their products work for my friends.

All stereo headphones work with the iPods, except broken ones.

I still like my JVC FXC50, or the FX66 if you are on a budget.

In-ear headphones? Ew. Those tend to irritate my ears, but I suppose if I used them more often I'd get used to it. How long have you had those?

Depends on the brand, I HATE Skullcandy headphones. They have a good quality sound; but they have really bad quality wiring (I break a pair of skullcandy headphones in over 3 weeks because of the wiring), and they don't stay in my ears.

If you get the in-ear phones, I have to suggest Sony. They stay in your ears, don't hurt. They have a way cleaner sound than Skullcandy headphones without losing the bass you want.

Btw, if you love Skullcandy Earphones so much, try out the Sony ones. They're over $40 but you wouldn't regret buying them. I never wanted to buy them, but when I used them I fell in love with em.

I love my skull candy (pretty blue) and I've never had trouble with them, have had them for nearly 3 months (they survived a trip through the Negev, so they're fine with durability) and they block off outside sound so well. They gave me a headache the first time I used them but I got used to it. I recommend 'em.

I agree, skullcandy's are awesome, but their durability sucks. Longest I've lasted with a pair was about 6 months.

I have the complete opposite opinion on Skull Candy as ear-bud headphones, I went through 4 or 5 pairs of them within a 4 month period using them as riding headphones on my bikes...

Plus, ear-buds are nothing compared to full ear setups. If you want a real "good pair" for a computer, get full ear.

The durability on some is pretty bad I guess, but the replacement plan makes up for that.

 

[esb]

I attempted to get them replaced, I couldn't. Forgot why, stopped caring. Don't have an mp3 anymore anyway so it doesn't really matter. But besides, 15 bucks every 3-6 months isn't so bad.

i got a good deal on a jvc ha-s350 for $20, it's a great mix between good sound and portability, but I can't seem to find them for sale anymore anywhere

These have been my headphones for 3 years now.

The same pair, still works splendid. Sound is acceptable.

Longest skullcandy I've lasted with was a month. Why? Skullcandys blow for skateboarding. The cord gets destroyed quickly, so I don't use Skullcandy headphones anymore. I prefer the Sony In-ear, they sound better and dont break.
