Something entirely different. Those headphones are horrible.

If you want....

That's my head-fi account. The headphones that I have owned are all... i guess you could say, the best for their price tag. Those are mostly In ear models (canal phones) but the K702s are open.

What exactly are you looking for in your headphone? What genres of music? you should definitely head over to that site and read for a day or so. You'll learn a TON.

what young spade said.... however if OP is dead set on a pair of overpriced subpar beats, he should know that the dre beats market is flooded with knock-offs, so I would be very VERY careful when buying used unless it is from a trusted source and it has the original receipt (packaging is very well copied as well, so that doesn't really help). That said, listen to a pair of real headphones and you'll see that those beats are awful for the price tag....

If you want something around the 100 dollar mark, the Audio Technica AT M50s are great for the price. Comfortable, somewhat cheap, and give great sound.
