Best Wireless Headphones..?

[amdhunter]

I keep running over the damned cords over and over, which eventually break the wires. I want to buy a pair of wireless phones, but I fear that they would have totally disgusting sound.

Anyone know a good pair (less than 80 bucks?) that they can recommend? I'd like something that just sounds crisp, with a nice low end.

I've never used wireless phones before, what can I realistically expect from them? FYI, I have a LOT of wireless devices in my home, from 900MHz - 5.4GHz, I have already thrown away a wireless dlink router due to interference problems...

get a good pair of headphones like these sennheisers: http://www.techreviewer.com/content/reviews/hd280pro/pic2.big.jpg

They have a cord that stays relatively taut like a phone cord, and it's replaceable (there are even instructions in the manual )

Hmm, I never really thought about getting a pair with replaceable wires? That would be good too.

Those HD 280 Pros have amazing sound, I've got a pair that have lasted me several years.

I have the Senny RS-110s.

They aren't very high end, but they do have good sound & great range.

Only slightly annoying thing is that if you're doing something on the PC that makes absolutely no noise for a while, they tend to tune into phone calls from all over my apartment :laugh:

Minor issue though, since i'm usually listening to music or doing something that makes sound on the PC.

QFT. I love mine. Quite durable.

This is the same problem I have. I've ruined so many pairs of headphones by yanking the wire too hard at some point.

I have had my Sennheiser HD-570 (wired) headphones for a couple-few years and I run over the cord all the time...it's made of Kevlar

Are those 5.1 headphones worth it? Will they work on an Audigy card for gaming purposes?

Although I use my box mainly for music listening, I would think it'd be kinda neat to have 5.1 since having speakers is not an option for me. (no room for anything)
