I've currently used these headphones for about 2 months. I primarily use them for trance DJ mixing, but also for general music/movie/gaming use with my PC.

Out of the box, the set includes the headphones, a 3.5 mini > 1/4 " gold plated adapter, and a detailed manual:

The headphones are super comfortable with crisp, clean sound, and deep, throaty bass. The closed ear design blocks nearly all ambient noise - a much needed feature for those of you with roomates, kids, etc. This also makes these headphones ideal for anyone interested in DJing of any sort. This also means you can crank up your music as loud as you'd like without having to worry about disturbing others in the same room.

I'd highly recommend these headphones to anyone who wants to invest in a high quality set of professional headphones. The sound and build quality delivered by Sennheiser is unparalleled.

They range from about 100 - 200 USD depending on where you get them. I picked mine up at a local 'Guitar Center' for about 120USD a few months ago. :happy:
