Headphones
Rez:
I have a pair of Shure E2Cs- benefited from a pricing mistake on Amazon and got them for £30. They break often, and I'd be annoyed by that if it weren't for the incredible customer service (always talk to someone straight away, always get a new pair within a working week). Good sound quality too, if you can get them to fit right.
Oh and these Koss ones might look terrible but they are fantastic value for money. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Koss-PortaPro-Quality-Sound-Stereophone/dp/B00001P4ZH/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1235526701&sr=8-1

I still use them because I tend to be rather careful with them, but it causes a problem if you use them out a lot.

Consumer market. Yeah, their plastic is awful, I only ever owned one pair, they broke within the month. I tend to thrash my headphones, no metter how hard I try to look after them.
I resorted to just buying cheap ones over and over again.

sennheiser cans are not street headphones, when used at home or at work they should last years.

Indeed, I only wish I had worked this out earlier.

SENNHEISER REPRAZENT
Honestly, if you're serious about high-quality sound from headphones durability shoud not be a concern. Super-premium audiophile headphones practically have to be used in a vacuum, for christ's sake. I've found Sennheisers to be the perfect compromise between fidelity and durability. I've had the same pair of hd280s for almost five years now and they still sound great.
