[Pelop17]

Hello , since my jbl 88i broke down after a 3 months use ( DO NOT BUY THEM )

I am looking to buy a new pair

I was thinking mayflower electronic their v1 and get the headband so it can be confortable

 

Whats other headphones do you suggest me at that price point

 

Good sound quality and good build quality

Budget, what kind of music you listen to and the general open or closed headphone?

budget around 150 $ and I listen to different covers and gaming ( but I do not need gaming headphones )

[ShearMe]

Any particular reason you're interested in the V1 over other headphones?

[vembutech]

Here check this headphone 150$ which may get you with some idea.

It's hard to wrong with HD558 at $90. I'd take used K612 ($130) over HD558 but most likely you'll need to spend additional money on amp

Simply because the AKG is inefficient, it's only 120ohm but it's very insensitive (means low dB of sound reproduction per watt)

 

MDR7506 and M40x are good choices, I'd recommend M40x over MDR7506 if you're going to use it for portable as it has removable cable and foldable

I ran the 612 off my 2012 tablet with great effect

Technically, there is no such thing as 'gaming headphones'. Audio is audio, and good audio is well...good. Few members here have been using something like HD800, LCD-2, etc for gaming...

612 is nice, maybe not for you, M40x is always a safe bet, SRH440 is nice too.

I'd buy them if the DT 880 didn't exist.

Beyer DT cans are pretty tough, but I'd get the M40x or SRH440 for le portability.

But sadly HD600 and HE-400 do exist too

The DT 880 is obviously better than the HD 600. Lower distortion than the HE 400, too.

First sentence was laughable, a facepalm isn't enough as a respond for the second sentence

That was the goal. Point is I bought the DT 880 instead of the K612; not saying it's the best because that would be dumb.

So I ended up between those:

1) Audio Technica M50x black

2) Berrydynamics DT 990

3) Mayflower electronics V1

 

Please I need a quick answer

2 or 3 would not get number 1.

Accidental double post

[Pelop17]

 I might go with the DT 990

[NannerBeans]

I might go with the DT 990

Personally I prefer the modded fostex over the dt990.
