Headphones

[ainsoph9]

I suppose my main problem with headphones is that I break them...be it, running over them, crushing them, getting them stuck in a chainsaw, somehow every pair of my headphones winds up broken, so I stick with the (what is to me) high quality low end stuff.
As for messing with the EQ, I really only do it at times of running, and that's just so I have something to help me pace myself with.

I suggest making a set place for them that is "safe." Not putting them on them floor, dropping them, and the like will take you a long way.

I wanna see what you guys think of JVC Gumy's. Those things are ridiculously cheap yet really long lasting for me.

JVC has never really had a good reputation in the recent past for making anything decent. Just like so many of the other brands out there, many of which are owned by Harman-Kardon, they follow the JBL policy: "Just Big and Loud."

I've tried and tried, but the last thing I want to do after running is put my headphones into/onto a table or something. I've just gotten to the point of putting my stereo headphones on my desk instead of throwing them onto the floor. (I'm rough with things.)

They're like those stock phones that come with that mp3 player. You think they sound alright but they're actually really bad

I tried a pair of those, but the just hurt my ears and didn't sound as good as my apple headphones. (At the time like 2 years ago.)
I do know people that swear by that name though, maybe they've gotten better.

Lol, you guys are so harsh on a pair of 15 dollar headphones XD.

[hobogunner]

Mine only cost 10 dollars.

[Poke2201]

Lol technically they are 10 bucks but I paid 15 due to tax.

[hobogunner]

...50% sales tax? I don't even think California is up to that yet.

I'm telling you, these babies are some of the most cost effective phones below $100 or even $50

JVC Marshmallows are pretty good, but only after some modding

WTH are those taxes?

Those are some good headphones. Those are the pair that I had.

I should not have to mod them.

I call it rounding.

The price was Close enough to $10.00 and Paid something close enough to $15.00.

[ben1234]

I hope that extra $5 tax includes transportation then...

[Poke2201]

Its not a 5 dollar tax. Trust me.

[Mystes]

So you mean that it costs something like 11.50 and you bought it with taxes at 13.50$ ?

[Poke2201]

Id push it closer to 12 and 13 rather than 11. I probably paid more than 15 bucks

This brings us back to the issue at hands. WTH TAXES. Not even the taxes in California. >.<
