Best portable Headphones

BlackMirror
Go to solution Solved by ShearMe,

Ok thanks guys

Im between the Custom One Pros now and the Audio Technica ATH M50X's now.

And I dont really want in ears as my ears are so freaking sensitive, I just cant put something in my ear even if they are comfortable ;/.

So any experiences with those 2 Headphones ?

 

Since they're likely similarly priced in Germany, get the better one - the Custom One Pro.

Yao Guys i need some help again  :)

 

So my recent headphone for on the go broke (some Sony Headphones) and now i need another Pair for mainly portable use/when im in the gym.Shouldnt be gigantic or gimmicky either (even if i love  Studio headphones,they are just too big to go outside with) and the Cable shouldnt be too long.

 

Music Genres i listen to : Rap,Hip-Hop,Electro, Some Vocals,Some Dubstep/Chillstep.

 

I already really want to get the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro as i just love Beyerdynamic :) (maybe some of you guys got experiences with those?!) but i wanted to look into some alternatives first.

 

Using:IPad 1st Generation 

          IPod Touch 5th Generation 32GB

 

Thank you for your time  :)

I use the Berdynamic Dt 880 Premium (good for the money), the Sony MDR 1's (goor the money) and the R220(not good for the money cause 500€ but it's wirless and it sounds good.) . But if i go out i use the Sony because they look sexy and sound good.

The DT770's are nice. What phone/mp3 player do you listen to your stuff on?

If you really want portable why just don't go with earbuds?? Over ear headphones can fell off, they are heavier and some can leak a lot of sound. For GYM i'd choose some good in-ear headphones.

Main PC:

ASUS F1A55-M LX, AMD A6-3500, (2x2)gb Kingston HyperX Blu DDR3 1600mhz, Seagate Barracuda 500gb 7200rpm, 
 Corsair CX430M, Cooler Master Elite 343, Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit

Netbook:

Lenovo Ideapad S10-2, Intel Atom N280, (1x1)gb DDR2 667mhz, WD Scorpio Blue 250gb 5400rpm, Zorin OS 9 Lite

Perhaps some clip ons if you don't want big headphones? ShearMe did a review on a bunch of them recently. You can find it in the FAQs (link on last page). I don't think over-ears are a good idea for the gym and on-ears are uncomfortable.

Since they're likely similarly priced in Germany, get the better one - the Custom One Pro.

Got my review sample in yesterday, its just more over priced and built worse. Sounds the same, and is only slightly more comfortable. At best a $110 headphone, so its just nothing then an overpriced wank machine designed to make an overpriced overhyped headphone more unreasonable. 

 

Get m50's small and good.

Not small, not good.
