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.
