Headphones for Birthday

Ok my birthday isnt for a while but Im going to get some nice headphones and i was wondering which ones you recommended

How much money are you willing to spend?

anything, its for my birthday

These are probably the best you could get for the price: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2201350&CatId=390

But if you want something almost just as good for $40 cheaper than get the 485's: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2341909&CatId=390

i dont like the way those look, what other brands of good headphoses r there

well sennheiser are rated the best for stereo headphones.

any other brand won't give you the clarity and 3d-effect that these do, you'd be wasting your money

just get sony headphones then, doesnt really matter cuz all other brands are the same

oh ok, that helps
but i thought stereo < like 5:1

Yea I think ill order the 555s

stereo?

stereo = 2 speakers

There are other kinds of headphones, like 5.1 ones but they're just marketing crap. the 5.1 ones arent even good

oh ok, thanks a lot youve been very helpful

Yeah even if you don't like the look of the sennheisers, they're the only ones that are going to give you TRUE high quality sound.

If you have a good sound card, that is

xfi right?
xtreme gamer?

yeah thats a good one. better than mine lol

im onboard right now

onboard is fine as long as its not like 6 years old, lol

its a 780i so its pretty good

yeah that should be good

arent u lucky i gotta settle with a pc that was only good in 2004

whatever
get a job, buy a comp

not done yet lol
im thinking about going wireless, my wires get caught in my chair wheels and the headphones break
any good wireless headsets? is sennheiser still the best?

yeah sennheiser will still be the best

but to find a wireless one equivalent to the hd485 will cost you about $200

well... idk
