What kinda headphones you rockin

Well my dog decided to chew up my Newegg.com - Turtle Beach TBS-2114 Earforce HPA2 5.1 Surround Sound Headset with Amplifier and Removable Microphone so I'm in the market for a new pair. Always just gone with a pair of gaming cans cause thats what I use them for mostly, but I think I might move more towards something more geared towards music but still great for gaming.

I'm thinking these Amazon.com: Audio Technica ATH-AD700 Open-air Dynamic Audiophile Headphones with 53mm Drivers with Neodymium Magnet Systems: Electronics

or possibly

Newegg.com - SENNHEISER HD555 3.5mm/ 6.3mm Connector Circumaural Stereo Headphone

I have these Newegg.com - Bose® Around-Ear Headphones which I heard were pretty decent but overpriced, they sound amazing to me.

I've heard Sennheiser is good bang for the buck.

Also, Nun how do those fit? They look a little small and square for my dumbo ears.

I just got a pair of Skullcandy earbuds when I got my phone, they've got a mic on them as they're meant for a cell phone but I use them with my Zune.
They're gonna hold me over until I can afford a pair of Seinheisers.
The bass on them is surprisingly awesome.

Sennheiser HD25's if you can afford them. The sound ain't the best.. but it's very good and they are very durable and comfortable.

i go through headphones a lot.

dont really like the ear bud ones anymore, they get uncomfortable.
was using some siberia icemats and they were alright, soudned amazing coming from shitty headpohones for only like $50. only took about 8 months though and one side lost sound.

fwiw those senn hd555 are what ive wanted for a long time, just need to spend the money on other shit now

yea icemats are ok gaming headsets, kinda get a bit outdated with new shit coming.

the hd555s are awesome for anything. gaming, music, tons of people swear by them in the competitive gaming community as well as music lovers.

however, those audio tech ad700s are about the same price as the 555s and might be a little bit better, just a little less known about as far as the regular user and gamer.
