I am looking for a good recommendation for a decent pair of headphones in
around the £20-£30 bracket.

Mainly need a decent pair that are durable that will be used for home use
only (not for Djing etc..) Also if you have any links to UK vendors that
would be great.

Any ideas?


I've always had good sounds from Sony.


I don't know about the difference in US and Europe $$, but the AKG-240m
have always been some of my favorites. I think they are made in
Germany. I was bummed when my set got stolen.

There was one recording studio I did some recording with who used them
for track mix down because the head engineer thought they were more
accurate than the monitors in the mixing room.

Just my thoughts about what I thought were good sounding headphones.
They are definitely for home use and not for "Walkman" style of use
because of their size.

Check out the "Musician's Friend" web site as their prices are usually
way below most places list price here in the states.
