they won the 'remix' award for headphones not that long ago.
and there comfortable as hell man
Co-sign, I use a pair of ATH-D40fs's myself, nice for the price, they sound real good for their price range & they're well put together.
I'm using the ATH-M40fs. i love them. when i bought them, i felt they were much more detailed than anything in the sub $100 range. when i bought my first pair i was looking to spend somewhere between $60-$80 the first time around, but when i heard these... i changed my mind real quick.
also, they are easy to drive and super durable... the faux leather will wear out, and peel off... but i was never able to break these things. they survived a million trips in a back pack full of records going to dj gigs. never had a problem w/the cable, or drivers. i'm on my second pair because my friend some how found a way to break my first pair. i think he threw them under the tire of the greyhound bus that took him from SD, to LA. actually, at the time i loaned him the headphones i forgot he had reputation for being able to ruin anything he laid his hands on... but 2 pairs in almost 10 years is pretty good in my opinion. it's also my understanding that they went down in price.
the only thing i don't like is the cable... it's completely straight, and in the way... not one of those curly telephone ones... so keep a rubber band around to tie it up, because the cable is about 9ft. it's annoying... especially when you constantly trip, or step on it... yet the they still don't break...
