tbdoah Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 Well, if you're looking for some over the head cans, most have long cords, and need the use of an amp to drive them properly. If you don't feel like carrying around an amp, look for some low impedance phones, like the D66's. They sound great directly out of a headphone out.

krhainos Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 I currently have the Koss UR-20s, granted they probably don't sound as good as the Eggo D66s, but they sound tons beter than the stock headphones that MD units are prone to include. Also if you're handy with the soldering iron, the Koss US-20s are rather easy to cut n' tailor into Remote-friendly cable lengths -- as for non-MD use a 'headphone extension cable' from RadioShack works well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazirker Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 I dislike the mdr-vxxx series headphones. I have V500's and they sound great, but they're heavy and aren't all that comfy. Go Eggo! D66's are incredible. I think the D22's are also very good, although I don't own them. If you like canal-style buds, EX71's are real nice too. By the way, all of those can be bought at Audiocubes; roughly $50 for EX71's or D22's, about $100 for the D66's (they're worth it!) Another option for much cheaper quality sound are Sennheiser MX400 or MX500's, although they aren't very comfortable and I don't know where to buy them.
