  • Headphones recommendations?

    What over ear headphones do you recommend in the 50-$100 range that come with a 1/4" plug or that come with an 1/8" plug and a solid 1/4" adapter? Ear buds are my favorite but I have to constantly fiddle with the connection in the adapter to use them with my interface, guitar amp, or drum module. Thx

    Why not just buy an adapter?
    You will never understand How it feels to live your life With no meaning or control And with nowhere left to go You are amazed that they exist And they burn so bright
    Whilst you can only wonder why

      I like Sony MDR-7506s. They're very tough, it's easy to get replacement parts for 'em, and they sound good. I've been using my pair for about 20 years now. They come with a 1/8th to 1/4 inch adapter . . . but I wouldn't buy 'em just for that adapter. :P

        I've bought 3 of them and I have to fiddle with the connection to get it to work properly. A pain when I'm trying to play and record and stuff.

          Looks like what I need. Good sound, over ear, 10ft cable, adapter.

          I got em! I'm on a buying spree today! It's gonna be fun playing my instruments when my HEADPHONES WORK RIGHT!!!

              Not sure if they're an industry standard, but a lotta folks like Sony's MDR-7506s. :P

                  They are a standard, and they're quite good for the price. In fact my only complaint is that they don't have a detachable cable.

Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.
