£30 headphones....

[Coby.]

Mother has told me she wants some over the ear headphones as the ear bud style hurt her ears.

Don't need to be expensive as will mainly only be used when she flies, Don't want anything to in your face as she's a woman in her 50's.

Help!!

Ordered those for my old man. No idea if they're any good or not but think everything will be pretty similar at that price

 

[Coby.]

Yeah I shouldn't imagine there is much in it when buying so cheap but thought I'd ask just in case.

 

[Coby.]

Anyone else got any recommendations before I order some tonight??

Have you had a look at what hifi?

I got some through their recommendation for £18, which were reasonable for the money.

I bought some of these for the kids recently really good for the money, dropped from £20 to £15 too

Anything Sennheiser will be half decent

These seem rated well but not sure if they might be a bit too big, Never seen my Mum in headphones so in my head she will look properly funny

Just seen this, Sennheiser is seeming the bets bet.

Never picked up the Phillips ones I posted earlier and have instead reserved these instead and will pick up tomorrow. On previous experience I like the sennheiser stuff

Did you pick up the 205's in the end mate?

Have you bought anything yet ??

Lindy NC-40 .. noise cancelling .. £40 on Amazon.

Bought them on a whim - but I'm super impressed by them. Wanted the Bose but at 1/6 the price, it's a no brainer for me. Most flights I'm on with work at 2hrs and cost less than these cans

I missed my reservation mate so ended up with 201s instead. They're only for my old man and all he listens to at work is talk sport and 5live so thought it didn't really matter about the quality lol
