I've been away for a couple off weeks in France (yes, very nice holiday, thanks for asking :-) ) ...so what's new around here?

I also got some great headphones - Sennheiser HD250 Linears:

Discarded by the previous owner (my dad) because the earpads had gone manky. 10 minutes on the internet yesterday & a new pair of pads arrive this morning. After a cleanup last night (my dad is a smoker), I now have them plugged into my GF777, listening to an old Gary Numan tape.
They sound fantastic. The decks on the GF777 aren't half bad you know...

If I ever move up from the Sennheiser PX-100, I might just give those a try. I hope they sound as good as they look! :yes: :cool:

Sennheiser makes great microphones and headphones. Congrats on that score!

However, if your budget for new cans is to stay under three digits, I highly recommend either the Grado Labs SR-60 or SR-80 headphones. They are a very, very good alternative to some of the more expensive Sennheisers and a fantastic bang for the buck.

:agree: For the money the Grado SR-80's are nice, I owned a pair as I was climbing the insanity ladder in my search for big cans.The only thing I really didn't care for were the scratchy earpads. I bought a pair of Sennheiser foam pads for my SR-225's that changed the comfort level and worked very nicely, sorry I don't remember what the model # was but they were under $10.
