I'm bumping this thread because I have a little question. I've been using my Sennheiser HD25-1 II's now for 8 months or so, and I absolutely love them.
Only thing is, I'm constantly using them, every day, every week. Busrides, tramrides, listening to music at home, dj'ing, producing etc.
So I was thinking of cutting them some slack and get some other headphones just for the rides on the bus, tram, listening to some music etc and keeping the HD25 for the more professional work.

Was thinking about getting HD25 SPII's, the cheaper brother of the regular HD25 (still pretty expensive though). Are they worth it?
Or are there better & cheaper ones around for everyday use? They need to have a good amount of sub and need to block some noise.

AKG's (although the wire gave up on mine after 1.5 years). Extensive use though.

they look a bit stupid, but my ear was seriously vibrating from the sub. :4:
+ in winter you get warm ears!
I use the xb300 for everything including production :W:


might explain why my stuff is a bit shit but yeah, I just love boosted bass too much to care

These are great, I got 'em originally for live sound engineering but great in the studio. Used to use them for DJ'ing as well but had to switch to the HD25's in the end for the lightiness :D

got the akg k240s mkII for production and listening at home. love the sound so much but they make your ears sore after a while. i've got a cheap pair of sony mdr v150s for travelling and playin the drums which aren't great but theyre ok for the 15quid pricetag
