Headphone advice... 13:35 - Jul 5 with 6440 views | Swailsey | To all you music buffs out there, my trusty headphones have finally packed up and I'm looking to get some decent ones. Primarily for use with music (indie/rock/bassy) plus podcasts. My budget is around £50 ish (give or take). Any recommendations? Thanks as always. | |

Oh yeah...I have iPhone 7 too, so no jack. Maybe it's time to finally go Bluetooth. Is charging them a pain? | |

Headphone advice... on 13:44 - Jul 5 with 6056 views | jmar17 | I'd recommend grabbing a pair of Sony Extra Bass headphones, I've been using them for over a year and they are great for what I use them for. I think I managed to pick them up for 20 quid in Tesco but have seen them cost more elsewhere. | | | |

Not overly, i just stick them on when i go to bed with phone etc. For £40 there is a charging case you can have but I haven't needed that | |

Headphone advice... on 14:02 - Jul 5 with 6017 views | tcblue | If they're just for in ear headphones then the Soundmagic E10 (10c if you need an inline mic) rightly gets a lot of plaudits from the Hifi mags. £30ish I think I paid for mine. [Post edited 5 Jul 2017 14:03]

I concur - the BOSE ones are excellent and the sound quality is phenomenal | |

Headphone advice... on 14:56 - Jul 5 with 5931 views | Deano69 | Hmm, seen similar threads to this from time to time. I also have a wish list Bluetooth - (probably, although iPhone 7 does have a converter) Ear canal type - no extra bit for in or out the ear) Decent battery life - or quick to charge Wide range of musical interest, rock, blues, trance/club, 70/80/90's etc Budget £50 - £150 | |

I have the Bose Soundlink II on-ear Bluetooth headphones and I wouldn't be without them now. Worth every penny! | |

I would say the same, was never a Bose fan before but these are fantastic and very comfortable too. | |

"CUSTOMISED BY JEWELL" So free, but have been used extensively before, don't work and cost a fortune to get rid of. Er, no thanks! | |

Headphone advice... on 20:27 - Jul 5 with 5680 views | Superfrans | AKG every time. You're paying for the headphones not the logo and they get great ratings in all the audiophile mags etc. These are the current version of the model I have. I've had a Bluetooth pair for three years and an early version of these for five years. Superb cans.

I know a group of people who play games and live stream for a living, they use Audio-Technica headphones for everything. Very good headphones. Would recommend. | |

Missed that bit!! My trusty 25's have lasted best part of 20 years and have taken a right battering too. | |

Mine are about 15 years old, got a hammering from years playing in clubs and still in perfect order. | |

Mrs Slave decided to try a pair of these based on this advice and concurs......she says thanks. Hope the train advice for tomorrow's Foster the People gig at Somerset House works out as well ! | |
