    Hard To find records had some technics 1200's for £90 which is a well good price coz they're the best headphones around, ohter than that try seinheiser they do a good range.

    I think I paid about 50 quid for my seinheisers and I personally love 'em but I know some people really don't get on with them. They don't reckon they're loud enough. That's a good thing in my book cos I still want to be able to hear in 10 years time, and I reckon they are plenty loud enough.
    The plug-in wires on the headset with the seinheisers is a big bonus for me cos I'm a clumsy **** and have knacked loads of pairs in the past by bending down to find a tune, standing on the lead, standing back up and ripping the lead out of the earpiece.

    I would have to agree with Mark on this one... I bought the Senhieser hd25's at a whopping £150 a few months ago but they are a class above I feel and they concentrate on quality as opposed to loudness. Very light but perfect. My only gripe would be that the cable be a bit longer or at least have the pull out of headphone facility as if you get it caught on something you end up pulling them off your head if your not careful.

    Hehe...
