EricM9104 Posted June 23, 2008 Report Posted June 23, 2008 Well.... I'm looking at some headphones for my mom, preferrably with an amp. They have to have LOUD bass, my Sony earbuds (sensitivity of 108dB) playing Beats 4 my Van at full volume off my mp3 player just wouldn't cut it. I know of the Skullcandy headphones, which I'll be asking a friend of mine about. Any other suggestions?

WickeD Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 I have SkullCandy and I love them... I have heard some of the Bose headphones and they sound good but imo not worth the 100$+ price tag. Quote
///Alpine91 Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 If your looking for some headphones for your computer i use these http://www.frozencpu.com/products/7088/snd...5p1Audiofx.html The force feedback is cool because you can feel the bass But they are USB so they will only work on a computer For my ipod i use skullcandy and they get the job done.

Computer headphones would work. Does the bass get louder than traditional ear-buds? Or do you just feel it? Gah, my mom hates the feel of bass, but she wants to hear it, I told her for it to get loud enough for her to hear, she'd feel it.

///Alpine91 Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 (edited) yea the bass gets loud plus you can choose to turn the force feedback on or off so if she doesnt like to feel it she doesnt have to I tested them on some bass testers and you can hear all the notes.
