does anyone use them? and are they anygood over say sennys or other brands

there looks are awsome so theses are problly what i am gna go for as they just look smart lol

and there is so many different types lol

anyway 50 quid is what i would spend on them so it the GI's or the skullcrushers so far
 
well i am into dubstep to classical

so a broad range of sound would be better hence why i am looking at these types of headphones and not gaming/chat headphones
 
I have the Skullcandy Hesh NBA limited edition

The bass is very good and i find them extremely comfortable. Plus they only cost me £30

No, I dont follow basketball. I just think they looked cool at the time
 
Personally i think they look cheap, tacky and maximum plastic!

Bet they sound crap too. I'd pick sennheiser over them anyday. ANYDAY!!!

Sennys are absolutely useless for metal. I should know I have a set of wireless ones that saw about ten minutes of use before being hung on the wall.
 
I don't think he wanted buds.

As for wireless being poo? Well, I had a set of GE (General Electric) ones in the USA and they were magnificent. Sadly the adapter buzzed when I converted it to 110 from 240. So I got the Senns. Absolutely no use whatsoever. Give them a bit of Faryl Smith or Camilla Kerslake? first class. Stuff them with some F**K I'M DEAD and they just farted rather loudly and had no bass at all.
 
You could look over at Head-Fi for some more advice

although I don't know how much is written about headphones at that price, but worth a look. It might tempt you to spend a bit more anyway

there are a lot to choose from depending on if you want headphones that are easy to drive or need an amp, if you want bass heavy or full spectrum balance and so on, comfort and style taken into account also. I have some AKG K181's atm and looking to buy a uDAC2 when I can, some decent options can be found from Denon, Audio Technica, Shure, Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic, AKG and Sony... If you're willing to go up to around £100 ish you can find quite a decent range. I listen Dubstep, DnB, HipHop, Classical, Jazz and the list goes on really and I like things quite bassy. The AKG k181's are good when DJing but for general use I find them slightly uncomfortable so looking at some options myself, if I find anything I like below £150 that suits me then I can let you know if you wanted, gotta decide if you want to pay for the extra, if not well see what's out there but unless Skullcandy has improved a lot in the last year or so I wouldn't bother with them. Good luck

i got some sennheiser cx500 earphones.great for laptop/phone when listening to music, and for £15 you cant get much better.great buy, would reccomend to anyone.CX500
 
I don't know anything about the Aerial7's sorry but the AKG k518's are technically good but have similar comfortability issue's to my k181's on the ear and so on, stretching helps some people and for others they are actually comfortable depends on the person. If you're willing to try them out and return if you don't like them then go for them as they're pretty good. Otherwise you could try the AKG k450's I've heard good things about them and they're smaller and more portable in general so you can carry them around more if you'd want and I haven't heard any problems with comfort. If you'd be ok with the comfort of the k518's you should be happy with them, of course if not then return

. The AKG k450's are only £50 on that website atm so good deal!

is higher the number better or does it no matter

are there anymore on ther ethat look good cos i havent hear of like most the makes
 
skullcandy ain't bad for the price, but personally i would go for sennheiser or sony.my friend is going to sell me BeatsByDre headphones, and i never really looked at on-ear much in the last couple years.even just compiling a list of what models interest you, then reading review on them helps a lot, thats how i landed with the cx500, reviews tell you a lot about the characteristics of the headphones

Na the k450's are actually more expensive and some really like the performance. They are £100 headphones for only £50 which is good and the portability is nice.

Other than that just use http://www.iheadphones.co.uk/on-ear-headphones.html?price=45,55 and look at the brands mentioned above then look up some reviews on them and look out for bass as with dubstep etc you know the rest

. The AKG's will do well, no idea for the rest in that price range but quite a lot aren't so good on the bass side of things.
