I need a pair of headphones for my computer.

I will be wearing them alot so comfort is very important.

I have a big head so I cant have them be tight.

I have bought a couple of cheap pairs and they are to tight.

Sound quality is not so important but I am sure I will listen to music on them as well.

Thanks in advance.

Bose AE2

Lightweight, not bulky and they don't squeeze at all...nice soft earcups

and most importantly, they are BOSE so they sound incredible

I have a big head, 7 7/8  or so and I have been using Turtle Bay headphones for gaming the last couple of years. Just bought a new set to replace my older ones with a cord issue (I rolled over it in my chair )

My new set are the PX22 and the inline amp is MUCH more rugged than my last set, as is the cord.

I use the older version of the Siberia Steel Series above.

They have some breathing area between the pad and the actual speaker, so your ears get some air when you're on the computer for a long time, plus you can hear what's going on around you (assuming you like to be aware of your surroundings).

Sound is really good; though I'm sure compared to some audiophile's $500 recording set, stuff that's merely good is relative.

They work well for long periods and seem to be pretty comfortable.  My head's on the larger end of the scale (by hat size, anyway), and they work well for me.

I ordered one set online, and then bought a spare of the V2 when I was surprised by finding one at Walmart, of all places.

Just go to Sennheiser's website, go to the 'around the ear' section, and then go by price. Around the ears are going to be most comfortable, because they don't actually sit ON your ears or put pressure on them.

Whatever you do, please don't get suckered into the Bose marketing crap. Their stuff is worth about 10% of what they charge for it. If you don't believe me, go do some reading.
