Headphones, but affordable?
Well, I got em:happysad:
It's cool cause now I can listen to music while my gf watches tv, but my thirst for some good headphones is still yet to be quenched. They lack bass response. The mids/highs are nice, very clear and clean sounding, I think the independent volume control is overkill and the mono/stereo switch is never gonna leave stereo so it too is worthless. You have to take it easy on them as far as bass is concerned as they are easily distorted which was a disappointment to me considering that was one of the things sman789 liked about em. Maybe it's the kind of music he listens to, but I'm listening to Lil Jon and the Eastside Boyz and it's just eating up the headphones. I'm gonna ride em out though until I can afford to get some nice ones, I'm gonna hunt down these Denon AHD-550's again, these are the bomb *ss headphones. The mids/highs are so clean and crisp and the bass response is unreal, they hit so hard, so loud that it made my ears sometimes feel like I just got out of a car w/the bass boomin'. And that's no exaggeration, they pound.

i listen to electronic and alternative, some hip/hop rap but nuthin like yours....i use the rock equalizer on winamp and the lows are set higher than normal....:dunno:
I'm just used to those Denon's, if you think these Phillips are sick, those Denon's would blow your mind. I swear, after listening to a bass track loudly, they will make your ears feel like you just got out of a hatchback with a 13W7 in the back. Well, not that bad, but you get the point. But for the $20, not bad.
