Anyway, I haven't had a proper hi-fi in about 8 years, so I decided to splash out on some new headphones:

They cost me a rediculous amount of money, but seeing as I spend at 3 or more hours a day commuting and listening to music, I thought they were a good investment. (then my father-in-law showed me his ¥110,000 / $1300 pair of open ear muffs O_O)
Using high quality headphones have really changed the way I listen to music. I am hearing so much more detail in what I listen to (Palace Posy right now). I tried other headphones approaching a similar price range, but these really appealed to me in the end. I prefer closed ear headphones. I like being able to block out the world. The sound quality is great, but I must admit that the look and style of these Japan only limited release did bias me a bit.
If you use headphones for listening to music, let me know what you use, if it's closed or open, how, when and why you use them.

I have one of these, but its broken. The membrane started to decay untill there was nothing left. It just produces mid-highs to highs now. Is it me or are Sennheisers extremely fragile? Every pair I have ever owned broke from either cable-break or other. And it turns out I really really dislike spiral-cords. They always twist together into a huge mess. I mixed Kike Juan on it.
Looking at the Akg K240MKII as suggested. It looks pretty neat. Especially like the ability to switch mini-XLR cables. Could very well be the one.
