New headphones

[bigmouthbob1]

I was looking for some new wired headphones that will go fully around my ears. I would like them to be really comfortable. They do not need a mic. If you need any other info feel free to ask

$100 max, but I would like to stay below that

ath-m50x are the best you can get on a budget.

 

they are 150 on amazon but i would seriously consider them. they are bascially perfectly flat and go REALLY low if you have a half-decent amount of power to drive it.

Well I really don't have the budget, also I looked at them, and they don't look very good

For the most part of those (that I know about), you can get a pack of fabric earpads to replace the leather ones.

Means that the headphones arent completely closed off with a solid earcup, but rather have small holes/grates to give you a larger sound stage. Reaction to this though is that its easier for other people to hear the audio coming through your headphones if using them in a public place.

 

Heres a video that explains it well:
