What is a good quality pair of wireless headphones?

I need a new pair of high quality headphones, someone help?

  • I'm a pretty big stickler for my headphones, and I'm in the market for a new pair. I'm looking to get feedback from real people with pros and cons of headphones they've spent a fair amount of time with. Without saying I'm looking for unreal sound quality I need a great sound stage. As well I'm looking for headphones that can handle bass without sound becoming muddled. A detachable cable is essential, and I'm looking for comfort, I definitely like my headphones secure/almost tight to my head. Noise canceling is preferred, but I definitely am looking for large/high quality soundproofing ear pads. Durability is also pretty important, and folding is a nice feature but not essential. I am a girl so I would prefer a pair that look good too haha so funky colors and nice style are a plus! Cost isn't a big deal, I wear headphones approximately 6-10 hrs a day so I don't mind an investment, I'm aiming for under 250-300 PLEASE DON'T SUGGEST BEATS BY DRE! Looking forward to suggestions, Thanks! :)

    AKG's Quincy Jones K701 sound great and look AWESOME (especially in green) I think. You can also check out the K272 HD, which is a newer headphone but doesn't look as awesome if that's what you want. The only thing I don't like about AKG is the bass volume - it's not very loud. What bass you can hear sounds great, and it goes very deep but it's not very loud. B&W P5 headphones have good bass, good mids, and respectable treble (this is a darker headphone in my opinion) but doesn't have a detachable cord. Sennheiser headphones will probably have the best soundstage, but depending on the model (anything with a resistance of more that 250 ohms will probably require an amp) can be hard to drive with your average MP3 player. On top of that, they don't look entirely chick. Plus most models are open-backed, meaning the entire world will hear what you're listening to. Bose QC 15 headphones do an EXCELLENT job of cancelling noise and have a detachable cord. They have good bass and good highs (mids might use a bit of work though). They are the most comfortable around/on-ear headphones I've worn. They don't seem to be the most durable, but they haven't broken on me yet. In addition, they're very portable and won't fall off your head. If you're not an extremist looking for the best sound quality you can get regardless of other features, I'd strongly suggest you look at these (maybe try them on at your nearest Best Buy if you can).

ALmost everything you are looking for there is included with Beats :P , ANd I own a pair and they are better than any headphones I have ever used , and i have been in a few recording studios. They have a detachable cable :P, noise cancelling and lots more. Why do you not want them suggested>?<

" I would prefer a pair that look good too haha so funky colors and nice style are a plus!" It's quite hard to get a pair that look good that arn't overpriced. http://v-moda.com/crossfade-lp-custom/ They are comfy ( for the first couple hours ), they claim to have some sort of noise isolation, they have a detachable cable, their very durable (made of metal), they dont fold but they do have a case, and they look good compared to most headphones around that price and theirs lots of colours to choose from. They don't sound great for the price but if you consider the durability and other things their not really overpriced. If you weren't bothered about the looks of the headphones i would've been able to suggest some much better ones.
