Nice, I’m sure they’re the same model or extremely close based on the price. They’re nice, aren’t they? I hear you on the surround setup, though…. maybe when I have an apartment big enough to justify it :)

I have a pair of Alienware branded Ultrasone headphones. They are pretty much the same thing on the dot and at the time were around the same price (and even may still be).

These are the best headphones I have ever had. When these puppies die (and they haven’t for two years) I will be sure to buy another set no matter the price. $200 is quite reasonable with the sound that you are getting. Now if only I could get a really good surround setup for my computer!

Thanks for the link. I know Behringer makes really poorly made but really awesome pedals, so I’m guessing that’s the case with their headphones as well.

Of course, if it’s possible to do so, get a physical hands on and try them out before dropping a bill or two.

you do need to look into things like Frequency response, and comfort when your spending more than £/$30+ on a set of cans.

when you look at some heaphones you can buy for industry use, there can be some amazing savings made, when you educate yourself on what heaphones offer, in repsect of frequency repsone and comfort.

I like the folding idea, I wish more manufactured would implement it. However the price is a bit too steep for me, I cant imagine anyone spending $200 on a headset, I could spend around $60 – max
