I bought a set of those skull candy buds for riding in a pinch when I lost mine. They worked surprisingly well. Better than my expensive ones. Great sound. Great price. What else is there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just have best buy jbl for the phone and computer . Got them on now lol I had a set of bose that I broke . So I took them apart and fitted the speakers out of them in my trail helmet. Work pretty good . Not as good as the headphones but good enough 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckf Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I'm not a headphone guy, but Nicole uses them a lot. She has tried several different ones over the past several years. She likes the V-Moda headphones the best so far folliwed by her AKG's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicole has a set of Beats too, but not sure which model. They all sound good to me, but see claims the V-Moda's sound the best out of the ones that she has Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing is more frustrating that listening to am radio like sound when one gets dislodged. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish these damn IPhones still had an output jack so I could use good old corded headphones for those cold dog walking days.👍🏼🐶 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snatchslayer Posted November 3, 2021 Author Share Posted November 3, 2021 I gotta say , battery life on the hesh evos is insane. Still using after 20+ hours 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deephaven Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I have a small battery/dac that I use with my ITE headphones. If the battery dies I have an extension cable. I travel all over the place though and the phones live in my head so it works really well. Battery does last more than a day, but having a convenient backup is nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deephaven Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 I am a HUGE fan of these. https://alclair.com/ I don't ever pull out my big cans anymore and it is killer to swap from music to conference calls with such ridiculous quality. I designed and made some near field monitors for my office with a sub that have nearly 2k in parts in them and my alclairs are better for critical listening. It isn't that the setup is bad, it's ridiculous but these are more so. I am a bit nuts though as noise & vibration is what has paid my bills for a long time.

Deephaven Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) They used to make a 2 driver unit for $249 that I see they replaced with a universal tip for $299. I haven't heard those but would expect them to blow lots of things away. I have the 6. No reason to spend more IMO as that it is the diminishing return spot. Some would say that even about the dual. Don't forget if you want wireless you have to add a dac as well. The cheaper Fiio 1k for $40 or so is really a great buy. ...and you won't break them. The cables are cheap and replaceable. The rest analog and robust. Edited November 4, 2021 by Deephaven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deephaven Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 However do NOT try to wear them in your helmet. Holy fuck did that hurt. I wear a TIGHT helmet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
