forabetes:
so my cheapo pair of sony headphones broke today and i need to replace em soonish.? Do you guys have any recomendations/advice/overall knowledge and wouldnt mind steering me towards a good pair?

bff:
i'm pretty attached to my sony studiomasters (MDR-V600).  They cover the whole ear but I don't get sweaty when I wear them for a long time and they feel pretty light. When I go DJ-style and flip up the right ear phone it stays in place well without the left one feeling like it is being torqued out of position.  You can get better one's of course, but for the money these serve me pretty well.

muffy:
Try Technics - they generally hold up longer than most and don't do that thing where one ear cuts out...

jmrz:
I just bought a new pair of Creative headphones ($20AU) because my pair of Sony ones died, one ear dropped out and I was not impressed. I do not like to spend absurd amounts on headphones as they will most likely just get broken, as long as they are decent sound quality I am a happy girl.

salada:
my favouritest pair of headphone that i've ever owned were a pair of koss portapros. they have great sound quality for their size, aren't crazy expensive, are super lightweight, and -- favourite part -- they fold up in on themselves so when you chuck them in your backpack they have less of a chance of being destroyed, which is the way every other pair of headphones of mine have gone. also the warranty on them is super good, and more or less means that if they ever fuck up you can just send em back and you'll be fine.

sennheiser also do a similar headphone (lightweight, compact, folds up) for around the same price i think, but i much prefer the way these ones pack up.

this is, of course, assuming you want headphones for a portable music player / walking around, and not for, you know, crazy audiophile listening. and also that you don't have some kind of gigantor chunky headphone fetish (some people do).
