Headphone advice please!

[Jibba]

I'm seriously thinkin of buying these Stanton Pro 60's.

They're in my price range (20-50) and seemed good when I gave them a listen in the store, nice n compact too.

Anyone know what they're like in a club? Do you get much interferance or distortion? Oh and do they snap easily as the plastic doesn't seem too sturdy.

Cheers.

or as a birthday pressie if i'm lucky :p they're only £25 :)

i think shuffla has them and they're not bad although I have some numarks off playa at the minute which he said he paid £30 for and are real good.

Give him a text or something and ask what his haedphones rae or where there from.

i know the're in my record bag at the minut ewhich he'll be unhappy about !! lol

The Stanton's are £42.

I was lookin at those Behringers in htfr catalogue and they did look nice. Behringer is always good for quality at a cheap price. They're German too so they'll last the time.

Thing is you can't try out the headphones at htfr so i'm worried that if I order from them I may not like what I get. I wanna know whet they feel like first ya know?

Cheers Hussla, i'll shout Jonny.

haven't used these headphones but my previous experiance with stanton products is they are cheap and break easily. since owning a stanton mixer i have vowed never to buy there products again.

Amazon do the Sony MDR-V700DJ 'phones for a cut down price of £67 if you can stretch...

yea i tried them on. was quite impressed for £25 much better than mine even before they broke! (not difficult i suppose)

Not sure where else you can get them. Oxford is shit for buying headfones. I wanted the technics ones for £50

...but wanted to try them on first. Realise now that the headband will just snap like on my ones so all about getting a decent sized headband i think

at any rate i'll prolly have to replace my speaker first. System check killed it. :(

The model down from them is only about £35-40, ive gotr a pair and they are the business for an economy purchase!

And they fold neatly :D

You can get em direct from sony for cheap i think ;)

Believe me - it's well worth a week of financial pain for some massive long term aural gain.
