    Any Skullcandy Headphones… they just break

    I’ve had 3 pairs of them so far. First one held up really well (I think it was their cheapest model), until the connection got a bit shitty. Second pair, the Casette, lasted for about 2-3 years, until it broke around the side. (y’know, the weakpoint of any pair of headphones?). I’m on a Hesh Evo rn and have no complaints currently. That is subject to change, however, as I’ve only had them for less than a year.

    What headphones would you recommend? From what I’ve seen, they all have a weakpoint, making them susceptible to breakage pretty easily.

      Sennheiser makes sturdy, and good sounding (IMO) headphones. You can buy anything too if it breaks or wears out to fix it when needed.

      This means there are lots on the second hand market too.

        Agreed. I have a pair of Sennheisers and I love that the cables disconnect from the headphones themselves-- that way if the cable ever gets pinched, I don’t have to replace the whole unit. The ear cups and head band are also replaceable and have a large 3rd party market.
