Specific Recommendations?

    Hi all,

    I’ve had a look through a few posts on this topic but can’t seem to find exactly what I’m looking for, so will ask your collective knowledge to perhaps help me out.

    I have an iPhone 4S and am looking for a really good set of headphones (not earphones) that have a mic for talking / volume controls.

    I saw the Bose QC15s and they have pretty much what I want but the overwhelming feedback seems to be “don’t buy these, they’re not worth the money” and I see pretty much the same thing about the Dr.Dre Beats. I see lots of recommendations for particular brands (Sennheiser etc) but is there anyone out there who would have recommendations for specific headphones rather than just the brands?

    Many thanks

    The Rook

    Don't think there are many headphones with iphone controls. The only one I know of is that might be is Bowers & Wilkins P5 but they're fairly expensive.

    some grand ear warmer headphones available here only 20euro delivered with iphhone mic, and volume control (no skip/back buttons though)

    Maybe try the Skullcandy Aviator Headphones, made with parts of sunglasses, look very unique, fold up real small aswell and have good padding I have the brown/gold ones + have a 3 button iphone control and mic. Skullcandy are normal pooh but these ones I think are up there with some of the best
