andyman Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 Also, I get cheaper shit buying online through JB if anyone knows of any cool stuff available through them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Haven't tried these personally, but fit the budget - https://www.jbhifi.com.au/headphones-dj ... ck/585574/I have to go down to JB tomorrow for work, so I'll have a suss on if there is anything better available for budget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabRat Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I can't remember how much I paid for mine (I doubt it was $50) but I recommend getting Sol Republic Amps HD. I'm not a big fan of Sol Republic cans after the disappointment for the Tracks V12's but the Amos HD's are awesome! I've been through a few earbuds and these are the best ones I've had so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodiak Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Checkout http://www.headphones.com.auAnything marked as recommended is very good. You will be able to get something decent for $50. I have the Brainwavz M2's which are awesome. One thing I particularly like is you can change the rubber bits to foam ones which isolate noise even better.

Scottie Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I keep seeing sennheiser cx300ii's popping up, cheapest I've found them from a retail place is at david fuckin jones of all places for $48 - but can be had for ~$30 and change if you're willing to go through ebay stores. The Klipsch S4 seem to go alright as well. check out this post for shitloads of other recommendations too http://www.head-fi.org/t/541204/concise ... st_7297554 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodiak Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Don't buy cheap headphones from eBay. They are counterfeit and not as good as originals... Especially those sennies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottie Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 yeah, gotta check on a individual basis. some are alright though. i got my pair of audio technica whateverthefucktheyare from one of those whales, listened to a pair that my m8 got from a store and they sound the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeatLeSS Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Fuark, epic feedback and I've been in the same need as andyman (different circumstances of course). Great thread! I'll be making a purchase out of this too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeatLeSS Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 So the need has finally cropped up, gotta get a set of buds for when I'm riding my pushy and just working around my house doing reno's. Gonna pick up a set of these: https://www.jbhifi.com.au/headphones-dj ... ack/18214/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyman Posted January 20, 2015 Author Share Posted January 20, 2015 Nice bro.Check out sites like Catch of the Day and such, I snagged a pair of CX215's for $20, absolute steal and crystal clear sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggssell Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 i dont know what the $50 range (i.e. the SE112 or SE115) is like but i can vouch for the shure 215. awesome in-ear monitors. barely have to turn up the sound (which i know is good for my ears) and great isolation in public.also sound clarity is so good i was hearing things in songs i have never heard before.a lot of people complain about the "flatness" of the shure sound, but i like em.i assume the lower range would still be good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodiak Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Apparently these have been getting rave reviews. Many saying best value for under $100... DSE had them at $18 a while back. http://www.dicksmith.com.au/earphones-headphones/panasonic-inear-rp-tcm125e-dsau-c9041 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottie Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 yeah there's always some flavour of the month shit thats cheap as fuck, then people move onto the next thing. that was my experience with head-fi and other audio forums anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeatLeSS Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Fucking LOL at this review.. http://headphones.reviewed.com/content/ ... 125-reviewSo I'm sold on the sennheisers. Though the Shures are around $100 mark at headphones.com.au eggs but I do like the sound of replaceable cables. No doubt gonna get minced up during every day use.

Though the Shures are around $100 mark at headphones.com.au eggs but I do like the sound of replaceable cables. No doubt gonna get minced up during every day use.i bought my 215s from a melbourne online store and it came with the free remote/ mic cable.which was wicked except yeah after about 16-18 months the cable is falling apart. i shouldve stuck with the OG cable as supposedly its kevlar and tuff as tits, but for the life of me i dont know where i put it (i think i chucked it in the move).and now that my watch controls my music i kinda dont need the remote.

BeatLeSS Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Ended up picking up a pair of the Senny CX-300 II's for the same price I could get it online @ local JB-HiFi.Pretty impressed for a low budget set hey. Haven't been able to test em on some good audio sources (just using phone which wasn't the greatest when using the XD-53's) yet but am definitely loving the feel of the in ears. Even just around home, in the I am a fagget etc can't hear any of the housemates rubbish and on the pushy it is total boss mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
