in ear headphones for under 100. On ebay the beats by dre in ears are 50 or less, are they real and hows the quality on them? Ive used shures, ultimate ears and a bunch of nice ones before but can't stand to spend too much since I'm terrible taking care of headphones. I need heavy bass for songs that really bump hard. Thanks!
 
I use the Mileectronics m9. They sound incredibly good and offer great bass for under $30.

Check out the HeadFi forums they have a mega review of almost all earphones from every brand sorted by price range.

Yes, The beats by dre in ears that are 50 bucks are fake. I am not sure about the quality because I never tried the fake ones. But I have tried the real ones and its very hard to tell the difference between those and other in ear headphones like skullcandies. You are basically paying for the name. I would recommend the Beats by dre Solo's or Solo's HD if you have the money because you said you wanted a lot of base. But if you are looking for a cheap pair of in ear headphones go with skullcandies.
 
best in ears for me have been Bose and Beats

if only i had the cake for the bose noise cancelling lol...

Heavy bass?

TDK EB900.

Forget Monster turbines, Senn.CX300, Meelectronics M9, Sony XB40EX and Rockford punchplugs, they DO NOT EVEN COME CLOSE to the TDK EB900 in terms of bass. I do have all those to ensure you this.

In fact it is the most bassy IEM you can buy after the UE Super.fi EB or the Futuresonic Atrio, both in the $200 range.


I wrote a small review in here.


Amazon have them for $36, regular price is $80. hurry!

The Rockford Fosgate Punch Plugs have pretty good bass.

People please don't spend money on this one, it is utterly umcorfortable and the bass is no where near what I would expect from a 13.5mm driver. Yes it gets very loud but the bass is totally lacking. It has 4 stars because most reviewers are car audio oriented, not audiophiles.

Lol I think you've got me sold! they look hella slick too! I don't have acar right now so the next best thing to bump yelawolf other than subs are a good pair of in ears. How are these on the wear and tear? I've wrecked plenty a pair of nice headphones including shures just from regular use.

edit - good review btw i just read it and see that the buds came apart lol! im more concerned about the wires tho. and whats cable noise? is that like static when your not playing any music?


I actually think I had these ones before. They were my girlfriends that she got free with her computer but they are brandless. The bass was pretty damn good in these considering they were free and ive been looking for these since they broke. And when I say I think I had them I'm sayin they look the exact same except for the logo.

I've dropped and slept over them many times, and they still working fine, feels sturdy. It also comes with a carrying pouch.
 
why don't you pay a bit more, get better head/earphones and just take care of them better?
