I suggest having the Oculus headphones as an Option

They are removable.

The built-in headphones are probably better than you're expecting but, if you like different ones, just remove the Oculus headphones and use whatever ones you like.

The most vital quality for headphones to have in VR is accurate frequency response, and unless you have some sort of studio monitors the Oculus headphones will probably be better at that.

Any headphones that in any way filter or adjust EQ (such as to boost bass) will ruin positional audio completely, and that's most "premium" consumer headphones (especially bose). How good they sound for music and movies is neither here nor there, headphones like that are bad for VR.

oh, nice

I understand the importance of including the headphones to people who go VR so they have what is intended to be heard. Was at best buy and asked a lady to try out the skullcrusher candy and she said she can definitely feel the bass and she was shopping for her son when he plays games and when she said she wasn't looking to spend that much which was $80 and it beats all the headphones $600+ it said a lot.

there is no way Oculus headphones can out weigh them w/o driving up the cost Huge

That's not true, there are tons of other headphones that beat Skullcandy Crusher with better bass. Sony MDR-XB500, V-MODA Crossfade M-100 and Sennheiser Urbanite XL, and others. Plus Bose don't even make bass headphones! :ugeek:"

I'm glad you're happy with your Skullcandy's, although I think I'd personally go with one of these as the best studio headphone.http://equipboard.com/posts/best-studio-headphones-for-music-production But to each their own, and if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I've never had a problem with the built in headphones, but your mileage may vary. Just wanted to confirm that you can remove them easily and I haven't had a problem using any type of headphone thus far. Much better than the Apple earbuds! :)

I suggest you all try the headphones out before making your own prejudice perspective.

I think that is good advice for anyone who says they don't think the Oculus built-in headphones will be as good as what they already have.
