    I knew a friend who spent around 500$ on headphones before. Some people are just audiophiles and loves the quality of high-end headphones.
     
  5. i bought a pair of Sennheiser after getting annoyed with my earbuds/headphones breaking every month or two. Prior to that i've had about 5 different ones ranging from $70 to $15 and they all freakin broke so fast, the sound quality are horrible. Got myself the Sennheiser cx 300 and its had 3 months of wear and tear on it from going out of my jeans to using it for the pc. It still looks and perform like new, not a single problem. Sound is awesome amen.

    Lesson Learned : Don't Cheap out when it comes to earphones , sound quality so much better on the high end, and you won't have to keep replacing it! Make sure u do a review before you get something nice because even with the high priced earphones, they can be just as shitty. Companies like to use cheap made chinese parts.

    dear god i wouldnt dare spend any kind of serious coin on earbuds. i replace mine every 3 or 4 months, due to me stepping on them, ripping apart the cord, getting them sheared by dropping them into the spokes of a moving bicycle etc. i learned my lesson with my my cameras.
