Audio Technica m40x. On sale for $100...

Sound worse than the $50 bluetooth headphones I used to have (but broke) and are horribly uncomfortable. They're so tight I can hear myself breathing.

Why did I listen to Reddit...

Normally I don't but I know nothing about headphones and thought maybe at least the headphones subreddit knew what they were talking about >_>

The best headphones are those $25 Sony monitors. I spent $50 once to see what Skullcandy is like and they were both way too tight and had too much bass.

I bet they're designed to mute/muffle anime girls' voices

No way I'd trust those

If you want good headphones you gotta dish out for a sony, bose, or sennhieser. Everything else is garbage

I guess plugging into my sound card makes a difference

But the output is too loud so I need to set windows to 10% and Foobar to really low as well. Kinda scares me and doesn't leave room for fine adjustment
