What type of headphones should I buy?

[kJL]

I'm trying to decide, and having a hard time. I love deep bass, lowww wobbles. Supposedly SENNHEISER DJs HD212 Pro's are good, they claim to have lots of bass. Does anyone have a better suggestion?

audio technica ath-m40fs

Honestly, all the senheisers I heard were rather bad for a good sounding bass.

I prefer sony when I "listen" to music instead of making it.

[kJL]

In reviews I read, DJ's are saying the bass is weak. :S

[DZA]

What are you gonna be using the headphones for and what price range?

[kJL]

Now I mostly just listen to music. I would like to start producing though. I make little beats on FL Studio. And it depends, I would like to stay below $150.00. But if they're just that good, then it could change.

Get sennheiser in ears just for listening then spend the rest on a alright pair of production headphones

Ive been buying the Sony MDR line for a couple models now, but I only DJ and preview back / double reference sound in them, they color bad... they got a nice sound though, are durable lil muffuckas, n thier only like 20-30 bucks, so Im not crushed when I break em... n they aint half bad for listenin back either, nice low response...

great for cue phones though.

Does anyone know anything about these?

AKG are great. They always look smooth, and have a nice warm bass. I still like sony more though..

[kJL]

I'm thinking about going with the AKGs. Does anyone object?

Beyerdynamic DT770 are detailed and have a nice deep bottom end.

AKG K240 are natural, non fatiguing and comfortable, bass not so heavy though.

• Folding design for compact portability
• Long listening comfort
• Carry pouch included
• OFC [Oxygen-free Copper] wire cables
• 3.5mm [1/8"] connector with 6.3mm [1/4"] jack adapter
• Type: Closed-back Dynamic (circumaural isolation design)
• Frequency Response: 5 – 33,000 Hz
• Maximum Input Power: 3,500 mW
• Sensitivity: 105 dB/mW at 1 kHz

• Weight: 320 g
• Cable: 1.2 m (Coiled)/Max. 3.0 m (OFC)

pretty much bang for your buck

Sennheiser.

i think if you are producing dubstep, having the extra bass that the audio technicas provide can be helpfull, cause its nice to hear it, cause in a club it will seem louder cause of the hench subs you get n stuff. So really you wont get a true representation in a club the sub n that will be louder
