If you're looking at pens, the Pen Type-A is very nice: http://shop.cwandt.com/products/pen-type-a

Also, sketchbooks are a good idea. I prefer soft cover moleskines:

and of course he's going to need some pretty solid headphones for those late studio nights. I'd recommend wireless headphones so that he doesn't accidentally cut the cord when he's cutting some chipboard. Either one of these are pretty solid:

I use the earbuds most often, but will switch to my Bose Sound Link (wired) when I'm playing seated stuff like Thumper.

I'm looking for a good pair of Bluetooth headphones. I travel a lot with my marching band and its overall easier to listen to music on the long bus rides without having to deal with cords and wires. I'm going to primarily be playing music off of my phone because of its storage space so the actual music player is not that advanced. The headphones have to be good at isolating sound (loud band bus) but I don't want to damage my ears by having them so loud. I was looking at two headphones in particular and was wondering on your opinions:
The Bose Soundlink On-Ear Bluetooth Headphones
Sony MDRXB950BT/B Extra Bass Bluetooth Headset

Budget - Up to $250
Source - Samsung Galaxy Avant Smart Phone, tablet for watching movies, Nintendo 3DS for mobile gaming.
Requirements for Isolation - A lot, loud band bus rides.
Preferred Type of Headphone - Over the ear or On the ear (as long as it does not hurt after hours of use)
Preferred tonal balance -I really do like bass for my Hip Hop stuff, but I want some balance for my other genres of music. I listen to a lot of Jazz and Classical as well as R&B.
Past headphones - I'm using Auvio Elite series headphones now from radioshack. Sometimes it feels like my music is far away, the bass isn't as good as I want it, has decent isolation.
Preferred Music - Mostly Hip-Hop, R&B, Funk, Jazz, Classical. I also dab into Pop, Rock, Alternative, J-Pop, Electronic

I heard the Bose headphones at best buy using my own music and I really liked them. My only concern is that because they are open headphones that I would be forced to turn them up very loud in order to block outside noise and I don't want to be very damaging to my ears. With my current headphones which are closed ear at most I have to turn up my music 3/4 of the volume. I heard the Sony Headphones only with the preview tracks at Best Buy and that did not have the bass boost on for me to try out. I'm weary about that one because I don't know how it will sound with my music specifically and my device specifically so I don't know if it will be a good match. Also my laptop does not have bluetooth so it's an extra bonus if the headphones have cord adapters so I can use them on my laptop or other computers/devices.

Budget - $100 would be a good price, however I’m pretty flexible. Just looking for a good pair that is worth the money and will last a long time.


Source - I was actually wanting bluetooth headphones but was still hoping to get a pair that offers a wired option as well. I will be listening to them on my macbook pro and iPhone 5.


Requirements for Isolation - I would prefer moderate isolation. I like to hear what’s going on around me but still want to be able to hear what I’m listening to.


Preferred Type of Headphone - On-ear (not around-ear), wireless preferred. I’ve found that around-ear headphones are a bit cumbersome for my liking.


Preferred tonal balance - I am in no way an audiophile. I look at the durability and features more than the sound itself. As you’ll see below, my current headphones suck so I’m sure I’ll be satisfied with just about anything in terms of sound.


Past headphones - As of now, all I have is the Apple Earpods so virtually anything will be an improvement to what I have now. The only other headphones I've invested in are Beats Studios. I hated them and hate myself more for buying them. This video helped me see the light (but that's beside the point). I bought them a couple years ago and the only excuse I have is I was young and stupid.


Preferred Music - I mainly listen to Alternative Rock. My favorite band is MuteMath.

Primary Uses - Feel like I should add this one. I will use these for walking to class (the main reason I want wireless) and relaxing in my dorm. I will also used them for some travel.


I have done a bit of research already and have narrowed it down to two potential candidates:


Jabra Revo Wireless - I like these for the build quality, daisy chaining option, and the price. I don’t like that they only come with a pouch as opposed to a hard carrying case. The touch controls also make me uneasy. They are rather unusual and I’m just not sure if they will work well or not for me. Because Staples is running a good deal on them at the moment, I’m strongly considering these.


Bose SoundLink On-Ear Bluetooth - While these are quite a bit more expensive, they are Bose and I know I’ll like them. However, I feel most of the money goes towards the name rather than the headphones. I guess the real question is: are they worth the price?


You don’t have to choose from these two. Like I said, I’m new to this and I’m sure you all know more than I do. What would you get if you were me?

EDIT: In general, I'm more interested in features (bluetooth, music control, etc.), durability, and comfort than I am in sound quality.

Hi all, looking to purchase a pair of bluetooth headphones for my mom this christmas. I was looking at these Bose Soundlinks, but was hoping you guys might have other reccomendations.

They must be bluetooth (mic is nice, but optional), lightweight, and a balanced tonal response (no emphasized bass; they're for mom). Long battery life would also be nice. They also must be headphones, not in-ear earbuds. Mom will be using this predominantly on her iPhone 5S while sitting on trains and subways, so some noise isolation is necessary (active noise canceling would be nice, but not required). Try to keep it same price as the Bose I posted, but I can move within a range of ± $100. I'm not sure what kind of music she listens to, or what model pair of earbuds she had used.

Required information can be found below in the table

Question|Answer
---|---
Budget | $250-$350
Source | iPhone 5S
Isolation | Enough to block city commuter noise
Form factor | either on-ear or over-ear
Tonal Balance | balanced overall

Thanks in advanced!

I've been doing some research on which headphones might be the best ones for my listening and I have had trouble finding the perfect pair.

 
 

I've been looking into buying a pair of open back headphones recently, as I have started getting more into the music and audiophile lifestyle. However I don't know where to start. Currently I'm using the BOSE OE Soundlink, as my everything headphones... and while they're perfect for me traveling and going to classes, they don't have the open sound stage or the power that Id want with something for home listening.

I've looked into it and I narrowed my search down to these three headphones; the
BayerDynamic Dt990's, the Sennheizer HD650's, and the AKG 701's; however, while they're all good quality headphones... I'm not certain that any one of these is exactly what I'm looking for.
 
 



This is where i need help, if anyone knows of any headphones that would match my preferences or has any suggestions about the ones I already have on my list, I'd greatly appreciate any tips that can be thrown my way.
 
 
My Preferences:

• under $500
  
• something that needs an amp (these will be home use only)
  ----OHM preferably above 175?
  
• Doesn't look terribly ugly (I really like how the dt990's look)
  
• Has a solid base that i can feel
  
• not too sharp in the trebles and high tones.
  
• removable wire (not necessary but preferable)
  
  

I don't know your price range, or if you're talking about headphones with a mic, but these have kept me very satisfied and haven't diminished at all in the year I've had them.
