    I Need Amazing Headphones
    Reason number one; the bass always sounds like the Facebook chat noise through my computer speakers. This makes me think I'm more popular than I am, and is slowly destroying my sanity.

    I want these, other than the fact they're from Urban Outfitters, and i hate that store.

    This is actually a gaming headset, and I don't actually own it yet (getting it with my new PC), but I've heard great things about its quality.

    The mic folds up so it doesn't get in the way.

    Hmmm, I sorta want to be able to wear it outside the house. Also, I dig those retro-looking headphones.

    For the money, it very tough to beat the Grado headphones. Check out the SR60's or SR80's depending on your budget.

    My MIGHTY EUROPEAN CURRENCY could purchase those (it's for my birthday), but I'm trying to stay under or around £50, 'cause I'll be using them outside.

    Check out Sennheiser. They make some nice 'phones and might have something that will fit your budget.

    The Sennheiser buds that came with the Rio Karma were the best cheap earbuds I ever had, sadly they were stolen and I'm not sure what the model was. I am now using Sony headphones, I think they are the MDR-EX85LPs, they are ok, I really hate the way the cord is set up and whenever it gets yanked my left earbud falls out. But they sound decent enough when they are in my ear right.

    Earphones are horrible, I refuse to use them.

    I prefer them when outside the house, but I understand because you are sacrificing sound quality.
