Where did you order those from?

I planned on buying Sennheiser HD558 but a stupid friend convinced me that expensive headphones are not worth it :p
yes you are right.. your friend is stupid... hd558 are excellent and cheap(i consider them cheap:p) compared to actual high quality stuff.. they are almost as good as hd598 which is saying something...

All celebrity endorsed headphones are crap "performance wise" but yeah style wise they are nice, however if you are a real audiophile or a musician than look into Beyerdynamic, Sennheiser, AKG, Audio-Technica, Shure, Grado, Superlux, Audeze, Sony etc brands. (some of them will cost you shit load of money :p)

Looking for headphones in the $200-$250 range, purchase will be made off Amazon.com. I prioritize two factors:

1) Shouldn't require an amp
2) Should be durable. I've a biggish head and have managed to break my hd555/hd595s, so I'm a little averse to plastic headphones now, unless they're reputably durable. Metal head bands preferred.

The look of Beats is the only thing good about them, imo. :|

You need to list your musical taste, main usage, stuff like that too.

I'm thinking of buying JVC RX500. Please tell me if it needs any amplifier. I plan to use it primarily on my phone (xperia mini pro)..

I would highly recommend jvc fxc51 if you can get them. Even if you aren't looking for iems the sound quality will surprise you for the price.

    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.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    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.
