So I listen to music while I work almost all the time. Every pair of headphones I've ever owned has lasted less than a year. The only set I've ever had last longer is these and they also happen to sound fantastic. I got them for my 21st birthday and they've been on their way out for a while (the wires started breaking right next to the speaker housing). They just finally siht the bed about 10 minutes ago. What should I get for my new pair? I'd prefer something small, not mixing headphones or something... I considered getting the same pair again but I've heard skull candy makes some good stuff.

Walkman FTW.

With the plastic headphones with the foam over the speaker? The sound quality must be incredible. I always found those headphones hurt my ears after 20 minutes and I have an iPod. Carrying around 5k songs in something smaller than my wallet that can also surf the net? Thank you very much.

$5 fleabay replacement or $200+ dumb things with a screen?
Plus 99.9% of the time I'd rather listen to wind/engine noise/my own thoughts over music.
Thank you very much.

I buy 10 dollar headphones from Radio Shack. The cable right near the plug is toast on my current set and I have to put it in a certain position to get any sound in the left speaker. They last 2 years.

At home I have a wireless set of RCA 900MHz headphones. Very comfortable and great range (especially after I added an external directional antenna that points in the direction I usually want to listen to music from a distance) but make the backs of my hears hurt after a few hours of wearing them.

Mine do the exact same thing! Little electrical tape helps.

Listening to headphones while driving is the most retarded idea ever and I want to slap drivers when I see them doing it.

And I'm not gonna lie IMO, wind gets old fast, the only exception is on my bike.

Those $10 ones sound like crap and break in 6 months for me. I have a set of wireless 'phones at home too. They're great, but they're staying at home.

Klipsch makes some good stuff. My garage speakers are from them.

Really? Bummer.

We've got some older solid oak ones that literally drive screws out of the drywall.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

I have 2 pairs of skull candies. One on ear and one ear bud. Both are adequate sound but not the best I've used. I deff want a pair of over ear if I buy a set where i don't care about looking like a fool or need them to fit under a helmet.

I'm half deaf and definitely not an audiophile. They sound fine to me.

Those people who listen to music while driving are just trying to offset a bad engine noise or lack of a cool engine sounds.

Not the half deaf part thankfully, but me too!

My engine sounds so awesome it overpowers any music being played.

... Really? You really think that? I couldn't disagree more.
