Hey, all.

I'm looking for a good, cheap pair of headphones. Mainly for watching movies and playing games.

I've noticed that Sennheiser is a highly praised name, and have been looking at their sets. So far I've found these..

http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-EH...-Headphones/dp/B00067OF80/ref=cm_cr_pr_sims_t

For $20, and also there's there Sennheiser HD201 and HD202's for around 20 each.

Any of you folks have experience with these sets, and can make a recommendation?

Many thanks.

PS: I know good and cheap don't always go hand in hand, but I'd like to stay around the 20-25 dollar range, if possible.
 
I use these:

http://www.plantronics.com/north_america/en_US/products/cat640035/cat1430032/prod5870017

The site says $60 but I think I got mine for about $40. Just look around. They aren't the most amazing headphones in the world (obviously since they're on the low end) but they are comfortable and the sound quality is more than acceptable.

One other suggestion from my personal experiences... Do NOT buy a Logitech headset. I have had nothing but trouble with them being EXTREMELY uncomfortable and breaking very easily.
 
Get the Sony MDR-V150. They're $15 on average 20 and are damn nice for cheap headphones. I bought two pairs so far. First got stepped on too many times although some hot glue and zip ties fixed them. I didn't even need to take the replacement pair out of the box and decided to hold onto them. I love these headphones, and this is coming from someone that has been burned by Sony so many times that when I compliment something they manufacture, I mean it.

EDIT: My brother has those Sennheisers in the first link. They're built kinda cheap (Sennheiser's shouldn't be that raggedy). Although to be fair, my brother replaced those with Bose Quiet Comfort headpones and the cord on them is worse than a $10-20 set of cans. For that much money, you'd think you'd get a better cord.

Yep yep, they work great.

My dog chewed up my roommates pair and I found them cheap on the Dell website (plus a student discount, score!) and the same exact day I ordered my roommate a new set he had gone out and bought some new ones...so I kept them and absolutely love them!
