:ping buy these headphones!More text: These are awesome headphones, which they had better be for $50(amazon). I live with the folks, so a set of real speakers is no good for when I want to listen to the parno and death metal music at the "proper" volume, so headphones is how I go. I've got a soundblaster audigy 2 soundcard, with the 5 1/4" bay controller unit. I plug the headphones into that.
So far I've been mainly listening to all kinds of music, no gaming yet. My gaming has been restricted to Fight Night 2004 on PS2 as of late. The bass response from these headphones is incredible. I actually had to turn it down on the soundcard's mixer. They fit my head fine - they are adjustable, have a foam pad on the top band, and the ear peices are very comfortable. The earpeices also tilt to form fit to your head. The longest I've worn them is about 2 hours, and I hardly noticed. There is a bit of pressure on your ears, but its nothing uncomfortable.
From what I can tell, these are a very quality product. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for semi-high end headphones. They sure blow away my old $20 AIWA's!
