WillyW 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2011 Hi all, im new here. I'm looking for budget headphones below $80. A quick search turned up some likeSennheised HD 201/202, Altec AHP524 and Koss KSC75 (though I don't like clip on). But those posts are mostly from some time back. Are there any new ones to recommend? What are the current prices of these? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dalethorn 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2011 I have two current headphones from Sennheiser, the PX-100-II and the PX-200-II. Do not forget that I'm talking about the -II models. The PX-100-II is good out of the box, and if you remove the center portion only of the earcushions, the sound becomes almost perfect. Excellent bass and midrange, slightly soft treble. The PX-200-II has weaker bass, but brighter mids and slightly better treble. Most people would be thrilled with the 100, but if you prefer the brighter 'phones, the 200 could be the perfect fit. I highly recommend both, and have reviews at Amazon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But check the reliability of the vendor also, which is usually available in reviews. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WillyW 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2011 Prob up to 60-70ish. Don't want to spend too much, cos I don't particularly take care of my earphones and headphones and abuse them quite a fair bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
