    You get better deals on-line.

    But I like my sennheiser headphones:

    Sennheiser HD 25 SP II Closed Headphone for DJ: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics

    And they have a large range:

    Sennheiser HD 202 Closed Back On-ear Stereo Headphone: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics

    This release was mastered direct from vinyl at the request of the DJ and as such features natural sound characteristics of this medium such as record surface noise.

        the easiest way to break headphones is to put them on the floor. i go through maybe 2-3 pairs a year so i just get the cheap $30 sonys.

          i second the sennheiser HD 25's. i have had mine for 5 years now and love them, they are even repairable with each piece being removable to change if something does go wrong. i have never had a problem well wort every penny

            AIAIAI are meant to be pretty durable too...saw a video a while back, you'd have to be completely retarded to break them...Troxler road tested them and they made it through unscathed apparently

                    Got the same ones...had them for about 5 years now...about $US90 in Japan....they were selling for about $AUD300 back then in Australia....2nd pair only because my knobhead friend broke the first pair....big fan...very likely I will get them again when in Japan, good value....

                    got sennheiser in ear headphones....well in the house somewhere...I hope...good quality but did swap first pair over due to some distortion

                    I saw some in ear headphones in Tokyo the other month for around $US300....for fucking in ear headphones that is ridiculous, fuck knows how much they would be anywhere else....

                      I use EarSonics SM3v2 with Shure Olive (great isolation.. perfect for sports) and also with the stock bi flanges. The earsonics are great for EDM.. very precise, and their sound stage makes you feel like you are right in the middle of the music

                      I have a pair of head direct RE0s, which I use with sony hybrid..

                      ..also a pair of Sennheiser-HD-280

                      ..next I think I want to get some grados, maybe sr80i.

                      And this.. but they are a bit pricey

                        Allen Heath Xone XD-53's, have had these for about 5 years. cant go wrong with AH I think.

                        They have a new pair, XD2-53, which has a nice detachable cable from the actual headphone.. pretty nice addition, especially for DJ's

                            IEMs > headphones, and my hearing thanks me for it. My Shure SE110 just bit the bullet after 8+ hours a day for 5 years and they were my favourite. Very clear sound and don't feel them at all. Unfortunately the SE215s I replaced them with are muddy in comparison and don't feel as comfortable, but might need a bit of wear in until they are working at their best.
