This is what I use right now. Soundboard Liberty 4 NC. Like I said before. I am completely cheapskate when it comes to things I do not care much about but spend big money if I like something. I bought this on a youtuber's recommendation tand they are fine and I use them for everything. Never felt the need to upgrade but headphones would help because these eaebuds do get tiring to wear at work headphones would be better.

This is what my co-worker recommended

And I told him there's no way in hell I am buying 500$ tincans jfl. And he told me it's worth it and he said some BS about bass, treble, mid tones and that shit.


I also recognzie Bose. I have Bose speakers in my car and they sound really good too but $300 still seems expensive

I have also seen many people wearing these beats when I go on my runs in the morning. Also not too expensive but I don't have an iPhone and it apparently works best with iPhone.

There also seem to be people selling headphones for dirt cheap on ebay like under $50. Tbh I am confused. Any other recommendations?

I've Tried the Bose & Beats
Beats Are Way Better In Sound Quality

I dont know much about audio but I did study electrical in uni . I just goggled those headphones and they seem to specifically mention a impedence rating. They probably would need some kind of line driver or something does that come included?
You can try with an amp or DAC if you feel you cant get a high volume. Though I doubt it will happen

The HD 560S has a 120 ohm impedance.

Jfl how much power does this suck.

What is DAC and amp? And how it influence volume?
Amplifier and Digital to Analog converter.

Mostly used for 600 series but 560S can be run off anything. All devices have amp and DAC but audiophiles use specific amp to increase the vol

Interesting like an external one that is more powerful.

Yeah, you wont need it though. Sennheiser makes some devices where users do buy amps so they give the rating I guess

If you want crisp audio and dont want thinness, you can try a dongle amp. You dont need external DAC though. It will make it better but if you have a shit audio source I doubt whether it will change much

Good source first and then ext amp. Dont go over 100 $ if you decide to buy an amp, for the 560S its not worth it

Some of these are pretty damn expensive tbh. DACs itself are north of 100$ i am even seeing some 600-700$ ones

For some people who really really care about audio, they swear by amp and DAC. But not all, I quickly browsed through a tech forum and even the most enthusiastic audio lovers say the difference might not be drastic and might be a finishing touch

They have a 300 dollar combo setup for 3 headphones, so I think you are better off with the headphones only.

If you say this DAC amp thing to your dad though, you'll get the broom for sure. They cost more than a dozen earphones I can get on Indiamart and the quality is just fine

If you are looking for a truly cheap option either something like these Sony WH-CH520 or legit any sony wh headphones.
Me personally I also own like 10 pairs of apple earpods as I don't mind wired unless im working out and they are like 19$ a pop
