I'm a huge fan of closed cup opposed to on the ear for a deeper sound.

Any recommendations? Sorry for hijacking, but I need to replace my cheap labtec headset. Not sure if I need a microphone (but would be bonus) but I'll probably be using it mostly for games.

How much do you want to spend?

I'm currently using a pair of bose QC2's but they were £300 when I got them, they have droped a bit since the on ear QC3's were released and they are great if you travel.

Sennheiser do some great closed cup headphones and you dont need to spend a fortune. there are loads of options check out headphone world

A little out of my price range . I was thinking £40 or £50 max.

PX100s do sound good but their open design might cause annoyance to others.

I use Grado SR60 headphones for listening at home. They are about £75 and are absolutely fantastic. They are a bit bulky (and daft looking) for portable use.

I use Sennheiser PX100 for listening out and about. £25 - £30. They are almost as good as the Grado.

I use Shure in ear phones for travelling on planes as they shut out most external noise and don’t bleed noise to disturb my neighbour. £75

You won’t go far wrong with the PX100 at under £30.

I use these for my decks. Not sure if there what your after but there the cheaper model of what a lot of DJ's use so if they prefer them I suspect they must be good. Never had a problem with my and every detail can be heard with them.

I use this for my decks. Highly recommend them
