Go to solution Solved by RasmusDC,

if we are talking cheap the Creative Aurvana Live if you still can get a hand on these, those are extremely good for the price. i know Zeos looked at the newer ones, can´t remember what he said about them.

 

i bought them shortly after launch so a LOOONG time ago.. they still sound GREAT, have so many other headphones today, but i still recommend these, to people. 

 

had the older ones, they were 30-40bucks at the time new, with Fostex OEM design, also used in the Denons 40mm GREAT headphones.

I have a pair of H4.40's and they sound great. Mind you thats the bluetooth model. But id say Senheiser is a good choice. 

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.

the problem with the used market where i live is that 2nd hand stuff for some reason sells at the same price than retail unfortunaly
