Morning All,

Can anyone suggest a set of headphones to use whilst sitting at my pc.

I have little ones that sit inside the ears which work okay, but I could do with a new set and thought about proper headphones that go over my ears....although perhaps not so bit that I'd look like a knob with them on my head whilst walking down the street.....if I ever decide to do such a thing.

I tried someone's a while ago and there were background noise reduction ones which were pretty good...but can't remember the make/model now.

Basically I'm in an open plan office and sometimes the background noise gets on me tips.

Merci.

Had a set of those sennheiser's for just what your talking about, pads material is degrading now but I have had them years! Great value.

(I always read it as Debz) - I take your point but some peoples music tastes don't involve drum and bass or dubstep or similar so mind blowing bass isn't important and the level of detail they pick out is incredible.

Not sure where your dyslexia comes into it, but I was only quoting the review.
I got some of these [url= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fischer-Audio-Consonance-Ear-Mp3-iPod-iPhone-Audio-Earphones-Headphones-/290857731188 ]Fischers[/url] after seeing them on [url= http://singletrackmag.com/forum/topic/soundmagic-e10-any-users#post-5256782 ]this[/url] thread.
Sound quality is fantastic. Only downside is the woven cable does make a noise if it brushes against something. Great for £30 though..
