Sennheiser HD-555's. They're open, which obviously can get sort of annoying when traveling, but it's good, since it lets me hear what other people are telling me while I'm listening. Plus, they double as earmuffs :p

I actually found Beats by Dre to be the best headphones i have ever owned, and everyone that has a go of them thinks the same.. Even friends who are DJ's and own upper end sennheiser's..

If they broke, and i couldnt get warranty on them, id drop another $300 on them.. seriously awesome if you are on the train a lot, or if you are travelling overseas..

the noise cancellation, and clarity of them is something else..

Sorry for being an ass but TIMG tags isnt enough for these photos, TIMG only makes the image dimension smaller, not the filesizes, i have a MBP 2.5ghz and it get noticeable slower when jumping into this thread ;)

You need a bigger tubes. If that's not available… time to move! :p

How do you like them? I really want to make sure I am getting a quality set of headphones before I drop $300 on them.

Save some money and get the Solos. Much less sound leakage and the bass isn't over done like the beats. Plus you save ~$130. I like them a lot. The dumb a__ at BB insisted that I get the Beats.

I use the at the office and I can wear them for 7 out of the 8 hours no problem.

Just copped me the White Dr Dre Beats Studios:

I did want to choose the Solos due to price difference but the quality isn't mind blowing. When I first heard the quality of the Studios, it sent a shiver down my spine... Spent 1 month thinking weather to buy or not, lol...

I am glad I invested though :D

D-town!
I be rockin' dem BEATS, BEATS, BEATS, BEATS, BEATS.....

Fiance' picked me up a set of white Beats by Dr. Dre Studio headphones... and I LOVE them. They're super comfortable compared to the dozens of other headphones i've tried, and they sound great when I'm listening to Sublime, Biggy, Wu-tang, Dave Mathews Band and Offspring. I can't complain. They were a bit pricey for me though, but well worth it.

Sennheiser HD 555's. Love 'em. I use them for when I want the most out of my music for long-listening since they're quite comfortable.

Sennheiser RS 130's. I find myself using these almost constantly (hooked to the tv)! They're comfortable, sound great for wireless, and static doesn't usually get in the way. There's a ton of interference in my apt building. A wireless-g network is actually impossible because of it. I was forced to use wireless-n. These headphones do quite well, considering. At my brother's place, they're even better.

Sennheiser CX300's. I use these for running, mainly. For $20, they sound fine. The mids are muddy, but the lows are good.

UltimateEars TripleFi 10vi noise-isolating earphones. These certainly sound awesome. Very clear. I am afraid to use them out and about, but they have their uses.

Skullcandy stuff. Got these because I need cheap stuff that I won't mind damaging. I certainly wouldn't take any of the ones above to the barn or the Army, so that's where these come in.

Double Agent wireless headphones (they use an SD card), which is perfect for working around the farm since there's no wires. They sound ok, too... especially for $15. Lowrider headphones in white are the compact kick-around ones. They sound pretty bad, but they do the job for $10. Titan Chrome earbuds sound ok. They're mainly used for Army, as the wire is durable and they're good 'buds to beat up for $10.
