12.09.11 | Sennheiser > any headphone manufacturer. I really want a pair. I have Sony Noise Cancellation headphones, and they're really nice, but fucking Sennheiser man. |

12.09.11 | Personally I think Beyers are the best, but you can't really go wrong with Sennheisers |

12.09.11 | my sennheisers are great and the cushioning on them actually cancels out a lot of noise |

12.09.11 | go with the Senns. I actually use Bose buds for casual days and they sound good, but for headphones its Grado or Senns so there u go. |

12.09.11 | I know it's cool to hate on Bose but it really depends what you're going to be using them for.
I have a pair of Bose QC15s and I wouldn't trade them for any other headphones (yes, I've tried Sennheisers and yes, they DO sound better), but my commute to university on city buses takes about 45 mins x2 per day, so noise canceling is HUGE for me, and the noise canceling on the QC15s is fantastic. Also, the majority of the other headphones I've tried (Senns included) have moderate to high levels of sound leakage, so I'd feel like kind of a dick if I was listening to music in a library and everyone around me could hear it. Sound leakage on the QC15s is minimal.
If I was just planning to listen to music at home, I'd go with Senns. But because of these other factors, I had to go with Bose.
I actually have a pair of sennheiser earbuds too, but I just use them for working out (great sound quality and they never fall out of my ears) |

12.10.11 | Sennheiser beats Bose in every category at the same price range. Go to head-fi.org and you will get beat up comparing Bose to Sennheiser. |

12.10.11 | Fuck Bose. You getting OEMs? Senn makes some very great ones, but there are some you should avoid as well. I second the use of head-fi. But if you ever want IEMs...

12.10.11 | And ILJAJLM, go with the HD 518 if you are 1) Ok with a lack of bass and 2) Understand that they need more than average output power to perform with 100% bass capability.
If you're cool with those two things then the HD 518 is probably one of the best values in its price range.

12.11.11 | Grado is American, and if you listen to mostly rock music, I'd definitely recommend Grados over Sennheiser. |

12.11.11 | bose arent even good enough to be dignified as a rival
sennheisers all the way
educate yourself on head-fi |

12.11.11 | "Personally I think Beyers are the best, but you can't really go wrong with Sennheisers"
both are great. grados are too colored for my taste |
sifFlammable
12.11.11 | i dont really listen to genres that go with grados but they're great for those certain few
they're a cute company too. they hand-write shipping addresses when you buy products from them lol |

12.11.11 | bose sucks go sennheiser |
taylormemer
12.11.11 | You first need to listen to the headphones with forms of music you generally listen to.
You ignore brand, you use your ears and make your choice within the bounds of your available cash. Yeah sure I could rec you some cool stuff but it ultimately comes down to you and your preference, not the preferences of others |

12.11.11 | Bose is horrendous. Never buy any of their products. |
