I'm going to have to agree with Tomm on this one. I've had a set of Sony's with a right-angle plug for nearly 6 years now. 4 of those years were spent serving 5 to 7-day, 9-14 hour marathons. And that was with part of the cord tied into a nice little knot so that I didn't have fifteen feet dangling out of my pocket. But about a year and a half ago I decided to treat myself to a nice swish little MP3 player, and net set of headphones. So I picked up some Sennies. Five months of the same use and the straight-jack had an internal wire break. I'm now using those same Sony headphones once again because I don't feel like spending another $60 on a set that'll not last the year.
ive had my cans for years now, good set however my canals just died on me i need to find some cheapies to tie me over at work to last me so i dont go insane modelling
I ended up getting a pair of MX-500's from Play.com for under £8. Probably the best I can do untill I have the money to try a pair of MX760's.
Thought I'd bump this as I just started using my Sony MDR-EX90LP headphones again, they are just awesome. They are plugged into my PC at the moment through my speakers and the quality of the sound coming out is just amazing, and beats my other £40 PC headphones on my desk, think they are going in the draw. Can't wait to run with these tomorrow morning, normally run without music.
