Yep. That's the reason I didn't get them!
I'm quite happy being strangled for 80

I know lots of people who swear by the 25sp's - being a complete malco
however I tend to find it pretty easy to pull the wires out / cups off

There is a cheaper version which I have,
Sennheiser HD-25SP
which are half the price. Again everything is replacable,
I've had them
2 years now and I use them ALL the time still work fine. I think
Sennheiser have some weird guarantee that new parts will be available
for up to 10 years from the day you bought them ?!

One good thing is the weight - they're very light. I don't
find them too
'pinchy' on the ears.

They're incredibly loud and all the parts are replaceable
as well. They're
about 160 GBP, so I suppose about $210.

I recently scored a pair of the silver sony jobs [not sure
what the model
number is] they were about 100GBP I think
- I listened to them next to pair fo technics and they
clearly outclassed
the technics - the sonys show virtually no distortion at
really high vols.
I also find the sony's fit over my ears well wheres as many
others such as
technics and senheiser sit kind of on your ear which doesnt
isolate as
much
outside noise and isnt too comfy imo.

Hi, what would you consider to be the best headphones for
mixing in a club
as well as for home listening?
Suggestions/reviews very welcome!
Bye, Remco
