Audio-Technica ATH-A700 Consumer

$170.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
when audio technica says around the ear fit, they mean it.
from www.amazon.com
the cord isn't replaceable which made me a bit nervous, but it's really not too big of a deal -- they're durable and it only made me want to take better care of them.
from www.amazon.com
the cloth wrapped cord is very nice, with no memory to it at all although it is slightly long.
from www.amazon.com
i'm wondering how i paid so little for a pair of headphones that feel like they cost $350+, which brings me to the point - - if you are headphone shopping - do not and i repeat do not buy anything
from www.amazon.com
i needed a pair of cans that allowed me to hear the music even when the dance floor was flooded with sound.

Audio-Technica ATH-M50

$129.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
a month is probably a long time to spend when you aren't planning on spending more than $100 anyways, maybe $150 tops, but it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside to know that my money has been well
from www.amazon.com
i am still burning these headphones in (owned only a few hours), but already i am honestly mad that it took me 23 years to experience music at this level of beauty.
from www.amazon.com
my boss sits only 2 metres away from me and he could only just hear something at the point my ears started to hurt.
from www.amazon.com
these audio technica phones give me performance and a feeling of pride-of-ownership way beyond the levels i would have expected at this price point.
from www.amazon.com
my $10-$20 earphones/headphones never gave me this kinda clarity and soundstage.

from www.amazon.com
- as others have mentioned, it's important to select the proper gel for your ear.
from www.amazon.com
fitting will take a while, it took me around 15-20 mins to get the right ear gel and wire positioning for optimal sound.
from www.amazon.com
at first the custom-2 sounded very tinny; even though i was experienced with the etymotics, it took me a while to realize i just wasn't getting a good seal with the default medium single-flange "ear
from www.amazon.com
the only drawback for me is they can be a bit of a pain to put on with the over the ear wires, but i think i will get use to it.

Audio-Technica QuietPoint ATH-ANC7 Consumer

$175.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
ironically, the guy sitting next to me had a set of bose qc2's and the earpiece snapped off during the flight...he tried mine and said it was as good as the bose and the earpieces were even better.
from www.amazon.com
that means everything on the outside of my headphones is quieted to me, but everyone else hears what i have playing just as well as i can hear it.
from www.amazon.com
you can't hear it that much enough to mess with the song, but it is there sometimes, i'm trying to guess whether it is my headphones or it just does this, but all in all the bass is a 5.5/10.
from www.amazon.com
* the sound leaking it will be nice if it was less, it doesn't bother me much though.
from www.amazon.com
after reading lots of reviews, i decided to try these because the noise canceling is active, meaning it generates a reverse wave of sound to cancel the noise, rather than just blocking it out like

trust me, after buying these headphones i'm practically addicted to them.

Audio-Technica ATH-AD700 Professional

$165.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it's not like it's horrible, but if it's noticeable with my 7 3/4 hat size, i can't see anyone with a small or even a medium-size skull finding these comfortable.
from www.amazon.com
it was way worth the risk to me.
from www.amazon.com
if they are light on bass i can't hear it, there's plenty of depth here for me!
from www.amazon.com
*volume is pretty low on the bass, turn it up all the way and its alright (i never have my bass turned up, so its not a problem for me, but it could easily be a problem for someone else).
from www.amazon.com
one caveat: these phones seem to be designed for very wide heads, and it doesn't seem to me that they will sit properly on narrower heads.

it made me wonder where the bulk of the world audiophiles live - germany or france - i am sure.
from www.crutchfield.com
so let me give you a simpler one that will hopefully make it easier for you to decide.
from www.crutchfield.com
no noise reduction is perfect, but sennheiser provides just enough extra that classical music now works for me.
from www.amazon.com
i planned on using my normal cx300s but faith intervened and i left them by my freinds house leaving me with my 450s as my only audiophile headphone.
from www.amazon.com
not only does this block out ambient noise more effectively--airplanes are very noisy--but it allows me turn up the volume of my music to my preferred level without worrying about bad-neighborly

Sennheiser CX 400-B Consumer

$73.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.crutchfield.com
the three different sized ear buds are nice, but for me, none fit quite right.
from www.amazon.com
i mainly listen to rock/metal so i like the bass to stand out, with these it does.
from www.amazon.com
it lets me put them away in an organized way and keeps them from getting damaged.
from www.amazon.com
they fit better, and have decent sound quality (of course i'm not a professional, but it's good enough for me).

i'm an engineer and if you ever need a product evaluator, let me know.
from www.amazon.com
if you are like me you've already poured over a lot of reviews trying to figure out which earbuds are the best for your money, these are definitely it.
from www.amazon.com
by no means is it bad- cymbals are nicely defined for example.
from www.amazon.com
only drawback for me was that while using some workout machines the slider volume control would rub on the surface of the padded support and decrease the volume.
from www.amazon.com
i also spoke with the seller at blue skies electronics and she not only assured me that these were original, she gave me two website addresses that explained how to tell the fakes from the originals.

from www.newegg.com
the microphone clarity on this allowed me immediate compliments from several people over skype, ventrilo, and teamspeak.

Denon AH-C551K In-Ear

$74.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i had the v-moda vibe when it broke on me twice.
from www.amazon.com
the reason i took away a star is because the fit in the ear can be a bit uncomfortable and takes some getting used to (at least it did for me).
from www.amazon.com
isolation: so far so good for me with the supplied plugs, others who may not feel comfortable may want to try out the sony ex series plugs.
from www.amazon.com
i saw the price drop here on amazon and for $65 with free shipping, you'll be hard pressed to find anything that measures up against these.

cost: $150 - half the price of both bose models - makes it a clear win for me
