I'm with cheap bastard. ^_^
New headphones are so expensive but you can't try them before you buy. I love the big ear-covering type but hate the pressure they exert on my skull. I like the earbuds ability to slip in and they tend to stay in place.
Any 'lol whut crap sound' remarks mean nothing to me because I've got nothing to compare them to. Ignorance is handy.

Sony MDR-XD100
Very good and comfy overall but these don't block ANY backround noise so you can't really hear low end bass.

No idea. I just got the only clip on headphones I could find. Cost me $15, but at least I don't have to worry about finding a pair that can fit on my head properly, without having them dig the hell out of my ears.
Before that, though, I cycled through the $2 earbuds you can buy at petrol stations. Can't say I've noticed much of a change, except that these ones certainly last longer.

Up until a week ago, I was using these except the left one was cut off.neonsword13-ops said:The original ipod headphones.
Why? Because I love being a cheap bastard.
Now, I'm using pretty much the same thing, except it has annoying squishy things on the end and it can answer phone calls.
They suck. A small breeze will make them fall out of your ears.
For on-the-go use on my iPod, I use a pair of Philips SHE9503 earbuds. Great treble, decent bass and good sound isolation. The left bud died a few days ago, but since it lasted quite long for earbuds (just over an year), I'm replacing them with a pair of the same model.
At home, I rather use speakers than headphones. My set is a 2.1 Logitech X-240. Great sound, and I bought it for about half the regular price!

I have these:

Sony MDRZX300B's. I quite like them, they're sturdy and have reasonable sound quality. They used to hurt a bit when I wore them, but I seem to have broken them in. Or killed the nerves in my ears.

I was wondering if someone was going to have the same headphones as me, got my wish by the second post of this thread!Matthew94 said:Sennheiser HD 205's, they sounds good enough for my needs and seem pretty resilient to wear and tear.
They have lasted just over a year so far with no signs of damage yet.
So yeah, I have some of these as wel. They are really good, owned them for a few months and they seem reliable so far. Go great with my Creative Zen X-Fi as well.
For my ipod i use terrible, cheap earphones that i buy 2-3 pairs of at a time. they last about 5-6 months on a good run, so most of the time my headphone replacement costs hover at around $8 per year.
for my pc i use some turtle beach X11s.

I don't use headphones on my computer. I have a Logitech 5.1 surround sound system. I also have a Bose system for my tv. For music, I just use the cheapest pair of ear buds I can find since they only get used at the gym and that is it.
