Headphone's and Earbuds

[Henry88]

i  have the Sennheiser RS 170 Digital Wireless Headphone and it is safe to say the Germans know there Headphone's because thees things rock.



so what do you guys use?

[MrTorso]

Not wireless but I use these for my commutes:

Sennheiser HD-218s



Love em!

[Henry88]

Sennheiser is a good brand  is it not

[MrTorso]

I have been happy with mine! Lightweight and noise cancelling. I need to look into some good wireless ones too.

Pricey?  I had been using in-ear buds but I hate how sweaty and itchy they make my ears.

I didn't realize Pink Panther Insulation made headphones.

The pair I got we used to sell at my store for $49.99. MSRP on those is $59.99 I think.

Not wireless either, but Denon AH-D1000 (Does it have to be limited to "Wireless Headphones?" Why not just "Headphones/Earbuds?")



I have a pair at home and at work. I wear headphones A LOT and these are really light and comfortable, and they sound great to me. You know that thing where you turn off the music for whatever reason and realize an hour later that you still have the headphones on? That happens to me all the time with these. I think I paid a little more than $100 for each a couple years ago. I hope they don't crap out on me because they stopped making 'em, and the new model blows in terms of its design.

I just have a pair of bose noise canceling headphones, the older model.  Though I wanted to say, I really don't like earbuds.  Not only are they uncomfortable, but it's not good to have a speaker that close to your eardrum.  It always makes me cringe when I can hear people's earbuds on the subway.  I feel bad for their poor ears! 

The only time I wear an earbud is at work, but that's because I have to wear one of these

I think I'd avoid the infrared--aren't those line-of-sight only?

I think I'd avoid the infrared--aren't those line-of-sight only?

Yes but IR can bounce off white walls and other stuff indoors.  If the power is high enough.  Looks like that unit has a lot of LEDs on the front, so I'd say it would be pretty good anywhere in the room with the transmitter.  Not good if you want to go into another room (unless you are around a corner with a wall to reflect the signal to you).  Other issue is if you have windows open and are letting in a lot of sunlight, that can cause interference (IR doesn't work outdoors in bright sun).

[Imrahil]

What about bluetooth headphones? I hear good things about them. No RF signal interference.

[Henry88]

are there any that are over the ears
