Headphone recommendations?

Kylis

I didn't the know the M50X's have noise cancelling @.@

Yeah, there really really strong passive noise cancelling though. Can barely hear my doorbell or phone ring.

This is entertainment, pity I don't have any popcorn here.

... There is only one top headphone, and it's not hard finding it (unless your ignorant, and it seems like that's what all of the people with "good reputation" are)...

Hilarious, I wished it was true though as I would have only needed to by one instead of the currently 4 (Bose, Sennheiser, Beyerdynamics and Grado) I have for all kind of different tasks.

@Kylis:

As was mentioned closest to your wishes is probably the new Sennheiser Momentum. I got the non wireless ones and the cups ended up a tiny bit small, apparently they fixed that on the wireless version. Sound quality is good and the bass isn't overwhelming.

Unfortunately I can't recommend much other Wireless options or Surround for that matter as I'm old school stereo guy.

Best recommendation is to find a good store where you can test listen from your own source. Take your time whit each test and bring different kind of recordings with you that reflect your needs (and a good player if you have). Keep them on for more than 10min to assess comfort.

If you do decide to scratch Wireless and Surround give the Beyerdynamics Custom One Pro a try, they aren't for everyone but might be what you're looking for.

Good luck finding what you desire.

I am in the Los Angeles area, would anyone have any recommendations as far as places to test a good range of headphones? preferably with my own source for audio if possible.

Even though I WOULDNT recommend 

Jesus christ, I'm just trying to recommend 

Er what?

You contradict yourself.

 

What i have learned, is dont post an answer in the audio forum if you dont know what exactly you are talking about.

Dont post if you are just going to say you have theses 100$ headphones, when the guy is looking for 500$ headphones.

Even if you are not recomed them, why are you posting?

I don't contradict myself, you edited out some parts. I was explaining something with a hypothetical scenario. Read the rest of the story until you make an idiot out of yourself.

I never said that the m50xs were the best, I clearly stated somewhere in the thread that I know there are better headphones out there. I just can't reccommend them to anyone.

 

Jesus christ, I'm just trying to recommend some headphones to someone.

He's serious, and he is correct in his statement.

I'm so confused at this point. Can someone explain? I was not contradicting myself, that was two different scenarios and he edited out parts, so it looked like one scenario.

Nothing contradicts itself in my quote, it could use better wording, but english wasn't my first language anyways. I was trying to say that I like the m50x it works for me, it might work for other people. There are better headphones out there, I haven't done much research on better headphones, but I'm recommending headphones that I have experience with. I cant recommend a pair of headphones that I know nothing about.

And you should not recomend headphones just because oyu have them.

They dont fit OP's needs.

 

Even if you didnt mean to contradict,

you should not recomend headphones just becuase you have them and like them.

If you dont have much experience, dont recomend anything at all.

I don't quite understand. Its just a recommendation. They can be ignored. Didn't need to get gut punched by several people. Just needs to be ignored.

False information can influence people badly.

Dont recomend something if it doesnt fit OP's needs.

If it "Just needs to be ignored." Then dont post it

Well if we don't then OP may think that it really is a good option, so it is needed to weed out bad answers.

Then all you need to say is, "There are better headphones than the M50X." Not, "DONT POST BECAUSE YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT"

WEll you should not post if you dont know what you are talking about.

Confusing to people looking for advice.
