Go study before you fail for the 4th time




If you don't want a mic than you can get SONY, JVC, PANASONIC easily for 2.5k with beautiful sound.

Also, you have a bank account?
No, ain't got no bank account.

So tell me a shop where I can find these brands. Also, got any specific models in mind?

Thanks

BTW benighted go for AKG K44 will cost 3000~3500 rupees. Worth a take if you ask me.
+1 to this. I use AKG K240 and I couldn't be more satisfied. Superb brand if your priority is on audio quality.

And you know how much I love my sludgy crunchy riffs.

EDIT: The stuff available in the local markets is trash. Sorry can't help you there.

Ben is already suffering from small pox. I dont think he can afford expensive headphones right now.

Donno i m lost!!
I've used headphones like JVC, Sennheiser, beats and tested some from Logitech, Sony and razor. All medium to high range.since my RX700 died recently, I was too heat broken to invest in higher end headphones. Took a leap of faith and invested in rather cheap official Xbox one headset. The stupid headset turned out to be great. The mic headphones work with android smarphones and have super clear sound, acceptable bass kick and decent comfort.
The headset with adaptor bundled costs 5k new but I m sure a 2-2.5k used headset alone should be possible. That headset is worth every single rupee!

I know there is an official headphone thread, but I'll likely get a better response in a separate thread, so please don't meddle with it. Pretty please, Bwave <3

So I'm looking for decent headphones for around 1k. They must have balanced sound. I've tried some audionic and a4tech models and they all give an overproduced, overly-bassy sound. While these headphones are great for rap, electronic, dubstep music, they don't suit rock music.

So please suggest me some good cheap headphones that can preserve the raw crunchy harshness of distorted guitars and not muffle it out with excessive bass. Must be loud as well.

Thank you!
IMO audionic/a4 tech doesn't even deserve 1K
You may get an RX300 or the 7H by adding a few more hundreds.

if you are looking for something serious and precise to blow away your mind you have to increase your budget by a larger extent

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
