Headphones
Whether
you plan to listen to music, watch movies or play videogames,
headphones are the ideal choice for personal audio. They are portable,
versatile and come in a range of styles and choices to suit regardless
of what you plan on using them for. This website will detail the main
varieties of headphones available, as well as provide you with some
general advice about what to buy, where to buy and what to do once
you've bought!
Choosing a decent pair of
headphones will depend on a number of factors, one of which is cost.
The age old adage applies here in as much as you do get what you pay
for. If you pay next to nothing, you can expect next to nothing back.
If you pay a fortune, you can expect audio quality at it's absolute
finest. But for the majority of us, those who want good audio quality
without breaking the bank, budgeting for between $50 and $200 should
get you some pretty mean cans. You need to consider what you are going
to use them for; are they going to be used primarily at home? Do you
plan to wear them out and about whilst on the move? Do you plan to play
sports or jog whilst you use them? Are they going to be used to watch
loud movies whilst other people are in bed? All legitimate things to
consider before you hand over your cash.

Whenever possible, try
headphones before you buy them, but if you really can't, read as many
independent reviews as you can. Like speakers, headphones are things
that have a very personal effect on each person and it's hard to simply
paint a pair as either 'good' or 'bad'. For example, a lover of
classical music might find a bass heavy set of headphones utterly
useless whilst a hip hop fanatic might find that they breathe new life
into their tunes. Also, be prepared to wait a while until your
headphones sound their best. They are again similar to speakers in as
much as you need to 'break them in'; a few months of casual use will
get them sounding superb.
