Budget Headphones for Home PC Use

[wonmoi 0]

Hi All,

can anyone please recommend some budget headphones for home PC use?

Intend to use PC for general listening of MP3 songs and FPS games such as Battlefield/MOH.

Budget is < $50.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Kenchi.

Before you bought your Altec Lansing, did you conisder any othe brands/models such as:

Senn HD 201/202,

Plantronics (350 I think),

Audio Technica AT - FC7,

Koss KSC 75,

Sony MDR-101LP or

Cyber Acoustics (AC-400?).

All these models are < $50 & keep appearing on various threads for PC headphones recommendations.

Just want to know how all these compare to the Altec Lansing.
