Best Over-Ear Headphones for under $200???

[cor23ey]

Bought some Shures for $65 at Best Buy and they suck...

Tried to search for some current reviews and couldn't find any new ones.

Anyone have some recommendations for over-ear headphones under $200?

BeyerDynamic DT 770s (32,80,250ohm) + headphone amp = ecstasy.

 

[cor23ey]

Those are $275...?

 

[recycledpaper]

can you tell me more about the headphone amp good sir?

 

[cs02132]

get the small version of the bose ones. no clue how much they cost but i think they are under $200 and theyre great

How about the Beats Solo? I have the Beats Studio and I love them.

 

[cor23ey]

I hear the beatz are great for hip-hop and the bose are comfortable as hell, but both way overpriced.

But none of the people give any better alternatives so I might keep looking into them.

I have the sennheiser hd 595 and theyre great. Paired with an amp they will blow you away but they're not ideal for outside use since they are open canheadphones.

I basically use them to block out some sounds when I'm working... But it's not loud enough to need noise canceling.

I wouldn't recommend the Senns if you are working in a quiet environment and there's people you don't want to interrupt. It leaks sound quitebadly and also lets sound in. They're best for personal listening at home.
