After looking up for the best headphones to use on my computer mainly to play the game Counter Strike: Source and reading many forums I decided on these.
Not only do these look great, but they offer THE BEST sound quality without using a external amp which can be expensive.
These are low impendence headphones and can be powered by almost anything including all MP3 players to the same volume as a standard in ear bud would allow.
The comfort of these things is great, they use Audio Technica's 3D wing system which is amazing you can hardly feel these on your head. One problem is though if you like to move your head around a lot or you headbang to music they can become loose. But if you move the headphones back I've found that it stays on your head better almost to the point where it can't fall off.
I've got them on now needless to say I can have them on for hours on end and not even worry. They can get a little warm under them but because of there size (similar to a CD) they fit around your ear.
The cable is amazing quality it's corded just like the G5 gaming mouse if your a gamer, it has a screw end to it if you have high end music equipment. Gold plated also. Can get tangled up just like any other cable but easy to sort out. The length is around 3 meters plenty.
The sound quality is very good for gaming or music and pretty much anything really! The bass is good, the highs are great and the mids are just as good.
There made of aluminium and are pretty toughly made I've dropped my set a few times from head height (Don't stand on the cable and stand up...) and there fine not even a scratch.
One thing I must say though is to let them burn in, this can take about 10-20 hours of listening so be patient.
I wouldn't recommend these as outdoor headphones though little to large but I've been tempted almost to the point of walking out the door with them...
I've had mine for just above a year now and I can tell you for the price it's still one of the best if not the best investments I have made for my computer, although it works perfect on anything else.
Got mine for around 170 pounds but you can find them for around 120 now if you look around. Well worth the money.

Quick review of Audio-Technica ATH-A900
These are the best I have ever had the chance to listen with. My first big headphone purchase it was. I now have to comment on a negative issue. Originally I thought it was the custom headphone calbe which was cusing the problem. Basically there is a short at the 1/8" mini jack on the headphones. Most of the time the connection is fine, but once it wiggles or moves you either get one channel or both at very low gain Now I either face not having them for a month so I can send them in to be repaired or replaced OR I replace the cable and jack with canare. ...

Advantages: Sound you can't beat, screen is very good quality, scratch-proof screen, great design. Disadvantages: Included earbuds are not very good.
I was recommended this player as I was after the best sounding FLAC (Free lossless audio codec)/MP3 player.
And I wasn't disappointed one bit, this player has amazing sound, a amazing screen and amazing video.
The screen is high quality, colours are very, very vibrant, clear and perfectly sharp. The touch screen works flawlessly on the slightly recessed, scratch-proof glass screen (It really is, search Youtube for the test!).
Build quality is amazing, lovely looking too. Nice, real metal chrome around the edges with a brushed metal back.
FLAC files (which this player also supports) sound better with high end players such as this and quality headphones/earbuds.
I'm using my AudioTechnicaATH-A900 headphones and my JVC marshmallows earbuds for more portable use. The included earbuds are not very good, but tell me a player which ...
