I've got a set of Sony MDR-V6's which are comfortable and legendary. I think they run $90 these days.

I highly highly recommend THESE don't let the cheap price fool you they are very very good. They have excellent bass and treble. As you can see they have hundreds of good reviews. Good company to buy from too!

Good company to buy from too! For you audiophiles, what does this rating mean: Sensitivity 100 +/- 3 dB / 1mW (S.P. L at 1 k Hz) ? I am also looking at getting a decent pair of headphones myself, not a musician or audiohead, but I enjoy music and like to get the best sound possible without being overly priced. So, yeh, this is a tag ...

So, yeh, this is a tag ... The sensitivity means approximately 100 decibels at 1 watt of input power measured at 1 meter from the speaker with a 1khz tone. Spl stands for sound pressure level aka how loud something is. I'd recommend Sennheiser HD280s. Great sound, great over the ear fit and great attenuation. About 80 to 90 bucks online. |

I have a pair of these that I use when practicing or checking mixes for headphones. Also, just general music listening. The upside is they are very good quality. The downside is a ton of songs I used to like were ruined by them because I hear the absolute worst recording and mixing decisions on the very obviously with them.

Having not had a decent set of headclamps in a longtime, it's also pretty cool hearing stuff you never realized was there before.

After years of monitoring, mixing, recording...I come to find you need good headphones....and unless you try them all, you won't know which is which.
The $35 Bestbuy head phones will play back a CD but will distort if you are using them for recording. Currently I am using Audio-Technica ATH-M50x....but they are $160. I hear more tones and subtleties that cheapies don't reproduce. They do get warm on the ears after a while, but when I am recording the guitar doesn't sound like fizz and the drivers/speakers don't clip with the drums coming through them. You might get lucky and find some inexpensive ones that do everything you need....or you might buy several cheap ones and never be satisfied....like I did for a while. |

I had three Plantronics Audio 90's that kicked ASS!!!
They sounded so good. One thing I like a lot was the fact that they didn't block much outside noise. That way my wife or kids couldn't easily sneak up on my and tap my on the shoulder and scare me to death  I need another pair but I'm sure they have not been made in a few years. |
