Audio-Technica ATH-M50

$129.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
each year it seems another musician friend recommends upgrades to my equipment and the one i'd resisted longest was a set of high quality headphones.
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
to get me as close as possible to the music event recorded on the cd.
from www.amazon.com
the music sounds organic, not synthetic and hyped.
from www.amazon.com
this may be the first set of headphones that i've tried out specifically designed for music playback, however that doesn't change anything in the least.

i listen to mostly classical music, so i may be looking for something different than most buyers, but it does sound great for other music, movies, and games as well.
from www.amazon.com
these headphones do not flaunt their ability to cancel out outside noise, but i'm very impressed of how much it actually does cancel out, if i am listening to music at a normal volume, i cant hear

for me its always how a headphone sounds with different types of music.

i can't travel with out my tunes so i go looking for some new ones because all high end, low end "in ear" earbud headphones hurt my inner ear because you must jam them in your ears to proper music
from www.amazon.com
i have a very wide taste when it comes to music and my use of these earphones.
from www.amazon.com
i plugged it into an iphone and it will play music!
from www.amazon.com
overall, i'm unable to tolerate loud music or noises, especially musical distortion, as it causes pain in both ears.
from www.amazon.com
some earphones are better suited to certain genres of music; the custom-2s work well with hiphop and rap, whereas image does justice to the subtleties of classical music, soundtracks, and folk.

caution, if using on the plane and you switch to a different audio source (from music to movie) they can get extremely loud and possibly damage your hearing and the headphone speakers.

from MattPie from PA, www.circuitcity.com
when you have them right, it should sound like you have a pair of ear plugs in (with the music off).
from www.crutchfield.com
actually i thought i was hearing someone's cell phone nearby, then realized i was hearing sounds within the music i never heard before...
from blue19 from Bellevue, WA, www.circuitcity.com
easy to remove the rubber tips for cleaning.also found these to work well when listening to music while falling asleep.
from audiomax from grand rapids michigan, www.circuitcity.com
i also like how these earbuds block outside noise, sort of like putting foam earplugs in your ears so all you hear is mostly the music and less outside noise.
from FK from Fairfax,VA, www.circuitcity.com
these little babies give you much better sound production in noisy situations and also prevent you from disturbing others with stray music sounds.

on the real pair of headphones, i can hear the thump in total silence, but while listening to music and working out, it is barely audible if at all.
from www.amazon.com
if you even slightly bump it, you will hear that bump in the headphones, and it overpowers the music.

i bought these to listen to music on my netbook, and these really fit the bill.the volume control is a nice extra and the pouch that comes with it fits easily into my netbook case.

this is my first iem and it's been a revelation listening to music through them.

i purchased the [overpriced] music adapter to allow these to fit in the iphone's recessed headphone jack and they work perfect for music and calls.
from www.amazon.com
no, it's not cheap, but as a musical explorer, i'd say they're worth every bright green buck you'll drop on buying it.

i've had people talking to me and i didn't even realize it with the music playing on level 8 out of 25.

the audio capabilities are intense as well...very strong bass, midrange and high come thru very well with all genres of music.

i am a college student who purchased these headphones because one of my roommates likes to blast his music while he does homework.

our daughter used it for our 3 hour plane trip to virginia to listen to music and watch videos.
from www.amazon.com
we just went on a long flight with our 3 year old and watching movies really passed the time.
from www.amazon.com
also, i find that the cord is pretty long - my girls have psps to watch movies and listen to music on, the cord is really long for something they are holding in their hands.
from www.amazon.com
these also worked on the plane connected to the earphone jack for the on-plane movies so we were all peacefully watching a movie.
from www.amazon.com
its not for serious music listening, its for kids who really wouldn't know the difference.

the difference between the two headsets can be summed up by this one observation: i can listen to classical music on airplanes with the sennheiser, which i could not do with the bose.

i did get myself a headphone amp for the ipod and it makes a world of difference, day and night, just about a 'must' if you really want to enjoy your music on the go, well worth it.
from www.amazon.com
i was in the market for a noise cancelling headphone because i travel a lot and i wanted to be able to watch movies or listen to music in relative isolation.

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

from HeadRoom, www.headphone.com
the sound quality of the mid-priced c551 is equally dependable with a clean, solid musical tonality that is friendly & smooth but perhaps lacks the neutral timbral precision and precise detail
from www.amazon.com
i'm an audio-purist and don't really care for bass shaking my head just to have it be obnoxious-- i want to hear the music as intended by the artist and that's exactly what these headphones do.
from www.amazon.com
- provide a nice, warm sound that is suitable for various types of music; granted, some of the precise detail resolution is lost, but at this price point the sound is excellent
from www.amazon.com
if you like listening to music while you workout, i recommend these, although not for running (they fill with sweat real fast, and fall out a lot), and be careful with the chord.
from www.amazon.com
music sounds really good and good range of volume.
