Heaphones help

ScarboroughKID · 13-01-2009, 6:19 PM

Hey guys,

I'm looking for some new headphones, nothing too brilliant, just over the head ones I can use to/from school etc, on a modest budget of £20. I've found 3 pairs, and was just wondering which you think are best or any others you would recommend:
Skullcandy Hesh

Sennheiser HD201

Sennheiser HD205

Thanks guys

I like the HD201's they were excellent, although I would recommend the CX500, they are also sennheiser..within you're budget.

guarantee you will not be dissapointed by those.

Stay well clear of Skull Candy, they are style before substance. At that budget any Sennheiser set would be good, you might find a good in ear set better for what you need though.

Creative EP-830 In Ear Headphones: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

These are especially good for the money, on par if not better than the Sennheiser CX300.

I'd go for senns everytime. You can pick up a pair of hd202's for £15 on Amazon. The 205's you mentioned are also a nice set or eh150's which are also £15 on Amazon. If you can stretch to £30 the hd212 are unbeatable at that price.

Thanks everyone, went for the HD212s, just waiting for Play.com to get them in stock
