Looking for some headphones for around £30-£45.

For in-door use, they need to be able to drain out loud music in the surroundings (my brother's), and also have decent clarity and bass.

So far I've found a few but they've all had flaws, e.g they need batteries for noise cancellation, or they keep outside noise out, but have crappy sound quality.

So just wondering if anyone knows if a pair of headphones exist that keep outside noise out, yet have decent sound quality to, within my specified price range :).

Thanks.

I used to have the 202's, excellent sound cancelling, alright sound, will be better than anything else you've tried if you havnt had proper headphones before. Dont expect it to be like being shut in a soundproof room though....

HD215's are better.....bit more cash.

or these....

http://www.essentialheadphones.co.uk/pr ... 9ccc2c1373
not the best freq response tbh

for a more lightweight package that will still shut out alot of sound Beyer Dynamic DT 231 galactic are the nuts for not much dosh

http://www.beyerdynamic.co.uk/beyerpage ... losed.html

or finally.....if i was spending your budget on closed back headphones, i'd probably get these.....

http://www.iheadphones.co.uk/headphones ... ATH910.htm

which have a nice frequency response.

Ok I am so going to get either the DT 231 or the ATH-910 ones, the only thing I'm confused about is this, # Sensitivity (1 mW):90 dB , what does it mean?

if its primarily for use with mp3's and for gaming then the HD202's are very good for the money

Colts recomendations are also very good, i'm just trying to save you some money :lol:

my other phones are Beyerdynamic DT440's


if possible it is best going into a shop and trying them
with your fave music, so take a cd
