Headphone recommendations?

[BonzeUK]

Got the Dell Visor from PCWorld (online 'cos the stores are a nightmare), but having difficulty deciding on headphones.

At the moment I'm using a cheapish pair of in-ear headphones with an inline mic.

I have a decent gaming headset but it won't fit over or under the Dell headset.

Looked at a few behind the neck type headsets on Amazon but not sure if they might also 'clash' with the Dell.

Just wondered what others are using.

I have the Dell from PCWorld as well. I just have decent quality in ear ones (Fiio Ex1 which sound and work well,), not sure behind the neck ones would feel comfy as you've already got the HMD at back of head and wires trailing at the back.

I have the Dell headset. I am using the LucidSound LS20 headset. A very capable set of cans. I don't recommend you try the LS30 or LS40 as they have larger ear pieces which would be an issue. After putting on the headphones, the Dell headset goes over them and still tightens up well without compromising on headset or headphone position. Much better than a set of ear buds. Get anything with bigger ear pieces or a lumpy hinge on the headphone band and you will have issues though, so take care. The LS20s are a great match though and are also a fantastic sounding set for the price and size. Can't think of anything better without spending big money.

Think I'll stick to the earbuds for now, maybe time to invest in a second pair.

Part of the benefit of the LS20s is that they are amplified. You could get an in-line pre-amp for your earbuds (it's not about volume, but about audio quality).

IF you are on budget then you can consider buying Bose rockers, I have them and they have decent sound quality, also they also have a good bass and doesn't hurt often when listening.

I'm using Sony headphones, but the biggest feature I would recommend is noise cancelling over brand. Making it more quiet helps the immersion of apps a lot.
