By 'eck that'll be Beyerdynamic

Advantages: excellent sound, comfort and durability
Disadvantages: none at all it even blocks outside noise

...Wanting a pair of in ear headphones in a bud like shape to help remove background noise when working out in the gym and jogging along main roads the Beyerdynamic DTX 50 were recommended to me by a friend who has used them without problems for some time. Having had the opportunity to experience the sound quality prior to purchase I had no problems parting with £47 for the wired headphones that have now for over 12 months kept my tunes pumped into my head and the outside world out. The buds sit easily in the ear and the rubber coating is really soft and acts as a barrier between the ear and the plastic sections that are really well made and rock solid which means the ultimate in comfort even when pounding away on the treadmill. The rubber also acts like a form of insulation from outside noise so even when drum and bass if banging away...

Review of beyerdynamic DTX 50

If you want sound quality, look no further

Advantages: Excellent sound quality, loud, good background noise reduction, long cable, comfortable
Disadvantages: Ugly, a little on the expensive side

...The Beyerdynamic DT100 headphones have for a long time been the industry standard headphones in sound engineering, so the DT150s, a new improved model, have much to live up to. First off, these are not small, and they aren't particularly light either. That is not to say they are not comfortable, the soft cushions fit nicely over your ears and are excellent at reducing background noise. The headband is also nice and tight, but not too much so, obviously dependant upon your head. Neither are they the most sylish, in my opinion, in fact I would say they are positively ulgy, but I choose my equipment for performance rather than style and performance they have in spades. The bass production is by far the deepest and clearest I have heard from any headphone - it blows the competition away, simple as that. The mids and highs are also crisp...

Rediscover your music

Advantages: Build,sound quality,comfort
Disadvantages: none

...I've owned these headphones for a number of years now. I chose them because being in or around the music industry i knew that beyerdynamic was the industry standard. The BBC use mostly DT100's for example. I paid i think £150 which to me was a lot of money for a set of headphones back then. I tried them on in the shop and instantly knew they were the headphones for me as they were so comfortable you didnt really know you had them on which is rare for a fully enclosed headphone. On getting them home i played some pink floyd through them using a fairly high end home set up. The sound response was remarkable. There were things coming through from the music i had never even heard before. This being because of the very large frequency response. It was like discovering my cd collection again. I have also used them on hi-fi of all...

Review of beyerdynamic DT 250

Exceptionally enjoyable listening experience

Advantages: Unbelievably clean and powerful Bass
Disadvantages: Old fashioned looks may disuade some buyers

...with a better midrange. The mid gets a bit drowned out by the beautiful bass tones in these phones so they are definately suited to dance music. However, I have seen pictures of bands using these phones (Bloc Party) and also actors (Matt Damon) wearing them during interviews in the BBC radio studio. This means they must be goodif they are trusted at that sort of level. Durability is immense. These are tough phones that will take a battering with breaking. Looks arent everything and that applies here. I personally like the way they resemble old fashioned audio equipment but some will find them bulky and ugly. I really dont care what people think when they see them beucase I am in a world of pleasure when they are on. Please buy these and support Beyerdynamic becuase they truly are a quality product and can be had for about £80 which is...

Review of beyerdynamic DT 131

One of the Main contenders in DJ headphones

Advantages: Style, comfort and ease of use.
Disadvantages: Average price??

...In my opinion there are pretty much 3 main contenders for DJ Headphones with designs that don't copy each other. Technics, Sony and Sennheiser. There are others but they are mostly just copies of Sony's MDVR 700. Such as Pioneer's HDJ1000, Stanton's DJ Pro 3000 and Beyerdynamic DJX1. What I love about these headphones is the comfort. They really are a pair of comfortable headphones with their padded headband and nicely padded ear cups. It's not just the comfort level; it's the fact they stay on your head. When I DJ I tend to well...have a tendency to dance. This is why, for me, these headphones are great. They mold to your head and stay there, as they are lighter than most of the competition in this range as they only weigh 230g without the cord. With the rotary housing (which allows the arms to pivot at different angles and lock into...
