#sennheiser_hd_600 I really love my headphones.
At day time in a noisy environment they are nice to wear al day during study or desk-work due to the comfort, great (real) sound while still in contact with your environment. But at night, when it's quiet, listening goes to a new level. It changed and widened my music taste.
I have them for 4 years now. The only problem I have are the cables, I just broke my second cable. Which means the copper inside of the cable breaks, which results in loss of sound on one side. The first (after about 2.5 years) had a rough live (stuck under chairs etc). Because I paied 25 euro for a new cable I was really careful with it, it still looks new...
But I do miss the sound, so I have to buy a new cable again.
