How many headphones do you have?

[Danneq]

I try to not get too caught up in buying expensive headphones, but I admit that it is almost too tempting after reading reviews at places like this one and Head-fi.

I mainly focus on earbuds and (open/semi open) headphones. Right now I have:
AKG K420
Sennheiser PX100
Yuin PK3
Sennheiser MX360 (back up in case the PK3 die. However, the sound quality they produce is not that great...)

I am looking at Yuin PK2 and G2, and also AKG K518 for my wife so that she gets some bass heavy phones to satisfy her portable bass needs.

This year I live in Machida, southwest of Tokyo, in Japan and apparently Audio Technica`s main office is situated here. I am curious about the ATH ES7 and ESW9, but sadly living in the same town as the main office of ATH doesn't make them cheaper...

amen brother

apart from the ones in my sig, i use Senn HD201s for chillout, lounge and some classical stuff and Sony mdr-x100s for movies

previously owned JVC marshmallows and Denon AH-C452s which i gave away to my sister

getting the HD650s and IE8s by the end of this month and also two pairs of KSC75s on promotion

Sony MDR V6 - the best headphones I have listened to so far. They are flat and accurately predictable: just pumping out what pumps in.

Sony MDR EX38IP - very worthy and inexpensive replacement (with on-cable remote) for anything Apple made available.

Sony MDR E829V - The earbuds classics! I love the analog attenuator. The most precise way to control volume in the digital era. I use these to listen to audiobooks when it ambient sounds go down at night.

Koss SportaPro (retired) - These were amazing portable sound in my teenage days. The sound was less strong on the bass and hence my choice over the Koss PortaPro.

AKG K70 (retired) - used to be a good affordable solution for home audio when I got them in 1995 (when I was 10).

Something white that came with the iPod - used to be great for hooking up, but now as everyone has an iDevice, white is no longer sexy.

I might upgrade for x-mas but I'm not sure if I really need to.

I guess for thread like this it doesn't matter.

I'm confused about how I supposedly had 4 headphones back in 2009 and I have four now. . . even though I got the HD 650's and K 601's since then. . . . oh wait, yeah the HD 650's were the Christmas present. I'm glad I decided to upgrade from my HD 485's.

Nah, good threads don't die. They just hibernate for a while until it comes time to rise again.

Back on topic, I have 4 headphones that get used. M50, sr60, meel m6, and the ksc75 on occasion. I have a couple of other IEMs lying around, but they don't really ever see the light of day. I will have a new set of IEMs coming in a little while though after a certain *cough*supersecretreviewer*cough* gets done with them.

[lestatar]

+1. This kinda thread, its kinda nice to see come back every now and again

[Adub]

Yeah this is good necroing hehe not "i'm stupid and i just bumped a useless thread from 3 years ago" necroing.

Personally i have 16 and use 3 regularly.

[Marvin the Martian]

I've got 5, and mostly use just 2 of them, occasionally a third.

[dv8tor]

I've got a pair of Klipsch Image S4's, Creative EP630s (but only one ear is functioning), SoundMagic PL30s, and a bunch of stock earphones that came with my media players (Creative Zen Vision:M, Creative Zen Classic 20GB, Cowon D2+, Samsung Wave, and Sansa Clip+).

I will soon sell my SoundMagic PL30s and probably get a pair of a-Jays ones or Sennheiser CX 271s so those may be added quite soon.

[cnhardwick]

I lost count a long time ago, but not counting duplicates or stock buds I would say I have roughly 15 different pairs of IEMs.

[epithetless]

Looks like I have about 42 sets of headphones/earphones at the moment (yikes!), 9 of which are in current rotation. My faves right now are the Monster Turbine Pro Copper, Phiaton MS 400, AIAIAI TMA-1, Sennheiser IE8, and Audio Technica ATH-M50.

EDIT: Make that 43 total, and 10 in rotation...My Monster Miles Davis Tributes just arrived.

[nicholaskid16]

All together I have 4

I have 2 pairs of IEMs.... I have a cheap $10 pair of Sony , Sony MDR-XB40EX which are actually really good.

Then I have 2 pairs of headphones which are Sony MDR-XB500 which seem to sound off for whatever reason... I like bass in my music but I think i might have received a damaged one because they sound a lil funny either that or my ears just can't get used to them.

Then I recently bought some AIAIAI TMA-1 which I have fallen in love with...
