Looking at getting a new pair because my old AKG wireless no longer work.

Looking at sennheiser this time, but stuck on what model too look at. Don't need top of line, something that's good for gaming and music.

Not really wanting to spend anymore than say $120ish...

Have you had a look through http://headphones.com.au/ reviews + forums for the win

headphones.com.au writes off the HD280's for being uncomfortable.

Are the 215's still worth the money?

beyerdynamic's FTMFW

I have DT531's and DT231pro's

heardy, know of anywhere in brisbane that you can listen to them?

I still love my phillip's hp890's, there are not the best sounding headphone on the planet but they are comfortable and cheap too I think I paid about $70 from retra-vision I think

Get headphones with standard jacks, not usb. I used to have headphones with USB, switching to speakers and back would always screw up a programs audio. Dunno if Windows 7 or Vista fix this, since I now have headphones with jacks.
Currently using the creative fatality headset. Very nice.

Plus, sound card audio > usb audio

I have some MOS dj1003's. They are pretty awesome, but no doubt 'old'

I have a spare set of these if you want: http://headphones.com.au/psingle?productID=146

Been meaning to sell them (got some closed phones for isolation). $100 ono.

Perfect condition of course.

u cant buy the 890 anymore i use to have them until they broke and no one can fix them :(

i went out and got these as i found a company on ebay that sold for like $100 cheaper

Audio Technica: ATH-AD900

http://headphones.com.au/psingle?productID=180

Still looking but narrowed it down to beyerdynamics dtx 900 and audio technica ath ad700. Leaning bit more towards to audio technica due to it's soundstage in games and good sound with rock music. Hoping to purchase by tomorrow on headphones site or by from shop around the corner from me.

you can get motorola dj805s for under $100 now. Love mine. Good with a bluetooth phone / mp3 player too.

I got spare parts from phillips nz a while ago, what did you need, was it the cam holding arm by any chance

Thundercracker, what is the bass level like in th ad900. Reading it's not that deep..

wireless headies any good soundwise? how long does the battery usually last?

i hate the f***off 3m long cord i have with the headies i got now.

To be honest it isn't that great at producing thumping bass. Its nice and clear however.

no wireless aren't very good unfortunately :(

sounds alright. i dont wear headies when playing music and games, just every now and then when i want to keep the noise down.

My akg were wireless and sound wasn't that bad(from what I can remember). More annoying part is havin to recharge/change batteries when pair in use die...

Thumping bass doesn't bother me, due to mainly listening to rock/metal.

I've also got the Beyer DT531s Heardy ;)

they're suffering from old age and constant use, but still kickarse

I would say go for it then damo. They are my favourite pair of headphones and I have gone through a few.

Check these things out:
