Sony headphones suck...
I just brought some noise cancellation headphones for my IPod. I get home and open the package and I see it's the same damn crap as I had before. Can anyone tell me why Sony chooses to make one strap really short and make the other side of the strap really long? I hate it when they do that.

I hate it. If you turn your head they just fall right out of your ear.

It's so you can wrap the longer cord around the back of your neck so the cord isn't hanging around everywhere. Its a good idea.
Quit stealing Chan's avatar punk.
I am currently rocking out to my new Phillips headphones, I have never heard such quality. I love them.

SHP2500... I aint even sure if they are any good, they are just much better than anything I have ever used. I was used to cheap things and my IPod headphones, and these things have those blown out of the water.

I have had my Sony MDRVDJ700 'phones for as long as I can remember, and they have kept going strong.

Re: Sony headphones suck...
I bought a Koss pair (UR-40) today. They are okay, but I just found out they were almost $15 less on Amazon.com than they were at the Radioshack store. Sucks. I like them though.

I'm not talking about the quality of the headphones. I'm talking about the way the headphones are being made. I find it to be vary inconvenient.

Have yours started to crack, right near the hinge of the ear piece? Everyone I know who has had those headphones, at least 5 including myself, had the same issue. I think mine were almost 2 years when that happened.
I did just buy a new pair though, but only for in house/dj use. They are way too heavy to go out on the town with them. For walking around I have these and love them.

I have some Shure Designs in-ear monitors. I think they are way overrated. I prefer my sennhesiers (they are over ear though)
