"I bought a pair of the Etymotic ER6i in-ear headphones you recommended for my iPod, and they're fantastic!"

"Headphone.com has done nothing but that since the day I bought my AKG K-702 headphones. Ask them any question and they have the answer?whether that question is highly technical (like how to interpret the frequency response of aluminum voice coils for K-702s), or personal (like the practical experience and opinion of the staff)."

Just to begin with, if you're an audiophile or music lover and don't own any headphones at all -- or have not heard headphones in eons -- you should at least try a pair of Grado SR60i -- it may be the most fun you've had with your stereo gear for only $79! The Koss Porta Pro offers very much the same level of sound quality in a smaller, more portable design for a ridiculous $49 dollars. For only $20 bucks there is pretty much no way you can go wrong with the Koss KSC-75 clip-on style headphones. The incredible Sennheiser HD201 are easily the best sounding 'full-size' cans under $35. The Sennheiser CX 300 II's are an excellent all-purpose in-ear headphone offering For your recording, studio and pro monitoring applications, the Superlux HD668B is spectacular headphone bargain with a clarity and easy efficiency that also makes your personal listening experience an inexpensive audio joy.
