This is another pair of Sennheiser heaphones I've had the pleasure of using in the last few years (I'm slowing reviewing them all). And again, I was fairly impressed.
You can get these headphones at around £30 (at time of writing this review) and to be honest, although they are pretty good, I would expect something a bit more special for my money. The build quality is good and these would take a bit of a beating and come out pretty well but they do feel a bit 'plasticy'. Obviously 99% of headphones are made of plastic but when they feel the way these do I think something needs to be done. The major problem I have is that the ear cups move up and down the headband part of the headphones. I hate this. For this money I would expect the headband itself to adjust. Maybe it's just me though. I bet others wouldn't even notice it. The ear cups do block out alot of the background noise as they fit snugly to your ears. Another thing which is a minor annoyance is the lead, it is far too long far what I want to use it for and I think anyone who would use this with their mp3 player will find a ridiculous amount of excess cable hanging form their pocket.
Comfort-wise, these do pretty well. The padded ear cups and headband fit snugly around my head and I'm able to wear them for long periods of time with no trouble at all. When it comes to sound quality these are distinctly average. I would expect more for my money. The bass becomes distorted if the volume is too high. And I like my music loud.
For this price, you can get better.

Advantages: Rather bassy, the volume is quite loud by default, cheap, good quality sound, Disadvantages: long periods, ears/jaw tends to hurt! Poor quality build.
Advantages: Light weight, comfy, great bass and midrange, replacable chord, brilliant isolation Disadvantages: Sometimes bass drowns out midrange so you might need to adjust EQ settings for some types of music
