Headphones
Well it looks like I will be in the market for some new ones since I couldn't control my rage last night (My own stupid mistake). So, anyone got any recommendations? I use them religously between work and poker, so I am not afraid of spending a little bit on them as long as they will survive normal abuse for a few years.
Sound quality is important, but comfort is even more important for me.
Corded vs Cordless is one debate I need to figure out. Most or all of the time I could use corded ones without it tilting me too bad, and I have heard the cordless ones are not as great of sound quality.
Oh, and I definitely do NOT want earbuds or any of the sort. I specifically want something that sits on or over my ears.
Thanks guys.

Look really cool, but the reviews on Amazon are not too convincing. DJs that baby their equipment are claiming they break after using them for 6 months is common. Do you own these? How long have you owned them?
Anyone have experience with Bose Headphones? I'm not exactly an audio expert, but I know enough to know you can't go wrong with Bose too often. I guess Im more wondering about wear and tear on the Bose's after using them a while. Anyone?
2 best headphones to me are Beats by Dr. Dre (buds or headphones) and Bose.
Monster Beats by Dr. Dre headphones Review - Headphones - CNET Reviews
Bose QuietComfort 15 - Video Review
Bose QuietComfort 15 Review - Headphones - CNET Reviews
As someone whos had both, Beats by Dre are the nuts, and its not close.
You will not regret (Full head set, have not tried the buds)
Amazon.com: Nixon Master Blaster Headphones: Sports & Outdoors
The review that guy has on there I don't really agree with..I love the detachable volume cord ( it doesn't come out easily ) and I love the volume adjustment on the side..they are comfortable and they sound good..I listen to them constantly..
I also used to sell WESC and Skullcandy headphones and Nixon is superior to either of those..I have a friend who is a DJ and recently switched from the Sony MDR series to the Nixons and says he said the sound is as good to him but likes the look/functionality of the Nixons way more.
Actually the swivel part on the mdrv 700's were the problematic part(s) as well. I wasn't a fan of them myself a lot of djs/audio junkies found them to have too much high end, which in the long run is pretty bad on the ears. I leaned toward the Pioneer because it had more of a deep/punchy sounding low-end. Your call though, I imagine they are a lot cheaper than when I bought them (Mine were 390 back in the day)
*** edit: Plus, how can you not find them sexy?

These look sick...
The studio version retail for around 400 here. I picked mine up in Buffalo for 300ish and would do it again.
I have the panasonic and the Koss noise cancellation headphones.
Neither of them deliver top end audiophile sound but they are great in the car/train/plane.
Sudio $300. Today only.
