Looking for some cheap over ear headphones

[Senzelian]

Hey guys,

I'm looking for some open back over ear headphones in the 50-70€ price range.

Would be nice if they also look as good as possible.

Thanks!

Not worried about audio reproduction quality?

I own this - Philips SHM1900 Wired Headset

 

Pros:

- comfortable

- cheap

- covers full ear

 

Cons:

- none (at least for me)

Of course I want the best quality possible.

Why on earth would you recommend these? The only criteria that you have matched here are the fact that they are over ear. Are they open back? No. Are they headphones? No, they are a headset. Do they cost between 50 and 70 euros? Not even close. I'm just going to go out on a limb and say that you have very limited experience with audio products... *sigh* 

 

@OP, Sennheiser HD518 should fit right in there (not entirely sure about the conversion rates, but it should come in under your max budget). They sound great for what they are, apparently they sound very, very similar to the more expensive 558 and 598. IMO, they look pretty good, and Sennheiser headphones tend to look better in person than they do in pictures.

These are definitly worth considering. But they look a bit clunky.

I mean, the whole point of open back headphones is that they are entirely for home use. As such, the size, and clunkyness of them really doesn't matter too much. On that note, are you looking for something more along the lines of a Sennheiser Momentum? They certainly aren't clunky, but you won't really find any headphones that are open back, and slick like that.

Hm, okay thats true. Then I probably should look into some on ears. They are actually for a friend of mine. He wants open back headphones for his iPhone for music. But he wants to get some decent ones. Currently he only uses cheap Sony headphones.
