I’m looking for a good, comfortable pair of headphones/earbuds that aren’t going to break the bank. What do you have and/or what do you recommend?

ive owned several pairs of $40-$60 ear buds i got off amazon. theyve all worked and sounded great, and were very comfortable. ive always preached that headphones/earbuds are waaaaaayyy too expensive in the market rn, and bc its such a trend right now to have headphones on or ear buds in (or just dangling around your neckto look cool, that that is why we are seeing insane prices on these phones/buds). consumer grade tech like that has no busniess being so expensive. maybe they sound better, sure im not saying they dont, but its no where near worth the price tags, nor is it practical for someone to need there music to be that high quality when theyre just using it to go for a run or to look trendyI wanted a cheapy pair for the gym. I bought these Tozo T6 wireless and they are actually amazing.
$45 on Amazon. Lots of bass and the touch, tap functions work well
Depends on how much you value music. I agree about some consumer grade stuff being expensive just for the sake of it but a great pair of phones have phenomenal build quality and create a fantastic sound stage with a 3D like quality. You could be intimately familiar with an album and hear things you’ve never heard. There is a point of diminishing returns once you get into the upper echelon of audiophile gear but there is absolutely a difference between price points in the sub $500-1k range.maybe they sound better, sure im not saying they dont, but its no where near worth the price tags
i'm 9/11'ing your thread

Do they need to be wireless?I’m bumping this because I am again in need of reccs. I was thinking about AirPods Pro 2, but I’d like to stay less than $200 if possible. One other pair I was heavily considering after watching Mike O’Brien’s reviews on YouTube is the Sennheiser Momentum 3’s. Not much cheaper than the AirPods Pro 2, but it’ll give me at least some wiggle room. But yeah, 2 years have passed since I started this thread. What new earbuds or headphones are you rocking or would you recommend for somebody like me? I’m very picky. I’d be mostly using them for music, possibly for movies/TV here and there, but mostly music is what I want them for.
I have an M2 11” iPad Pro and it’s got good speakers, but I am looking for earbuds or headphones in my price range of $200 or less that could give me a louder sound experience overall with some bass added in.
I forgot to mention a third pair I was eyeballing. The Beats Fit Pros.
Kinda, yeah. My iPad Pro doesn’t have a headphone jack. I suppose I could get a dongle, but I dunno.Do they need to be wireless?
The Moondrop Sparks look pretty good anc those would certainly fit great in my budget. Have you owned a pair before?Another wireless alternative that I recommend:
