    Hello,

    A friend of mine is getting some headphones soon and asked my opinion.
    Not sure of his budget but he wants decent enough ones. Said I'd ask here to see what you have around the €50 upward mark, or any to clear?
    He heard my grados a year or two ago and liked them. Any to recommend?

    Thanks.

    Guys apologies for the delay getting back to you both..

    It's pretty hard to beat the AKG K450 now at just £41 theya re amazing value and just slightly over budget!

    Have a look at the review here priced at £100... http://www.whathifi.com/review/k450

    If you need full ear cans then have a look at the K511's, which are just £34.95 - have a look here: http://www.richersounds.com/product/headphones/akg/k511/akg-k511

    Again apologies for the delay and drop us a line if we can assist,

    Sorry for hijacking the thread:)
    Are those http://www.richersounds.com/product/headphones/sony/mdrpq2g/sony-mdrpq2g good enough to start with for a kid?
    How much would it be to post them to Sligo?
    Or do you have something good in this price but looking nice(again, not for me, for kid;)

    Loki,

    apologies for the late response - we are currently out of stock of those Sony headhones but we do have the Sennheiser HD218 which are great headphones, tough as heck and the sound is excellent!

    showimage.php?image=306340.jpg&max_width=300&max_height=260

    http://www.richersounds.com/product/headphones/sennheiser/hd218/senn-hd218

    Available from stock and postage would be £4.99,

    Keep us posted if we can assist,

    Agreed!

    They on on the system with the wrong shipping category and we have not charged you - I'll make sure that you are just charged the £4.99 charge - I hope that's okay?

    Thanks again for the info and give me a shout if we can assist in any way,

    You can pay by credit card if you are shopping online or via the phone - we can charge you either in sterling and your bank will fix the euro conversion rate - or we can charge you in euro and you will know exactly what the euro charge will be - cmopletely your preference.

    Thanks again,
