Sony MDR-V6
$110.00
Released April, 2004
The Pros:Affordable per the great quality. Extremely long cord that doesn't tangle. Lightweight and compact.
The Cons:The foam padding on the speakers comes off after extended use, and are a pain to wrap back around. Get warm with prolonged use. On really high volumes, sound leaks out like crazy. Not the best headphone set for at-work use.

Somewhat water resistant. Have worn in the rain or with sweat, and didn't fry the system. Foam coverings offer enough protection from wetness to inner mechanics of unit.
