Default URGENT!!!! I need headphones, have to order tonight.

After my daughter has destroyed over $150 in headphones over the past couple months, it's time I find durable, yet good headphones. I need something with a heavy duty line, as that's what she usually destroys.

I always used the 30$ Logitech headset with microphone attachment until I finally upgraded to Bose. I wear headphones all the time and figured it was well worth the investment. They're nothing like those cheap headphones, they're amazing and seem durable. I've dropped my headset a few times, ran over the cord with my chair wheels a few times,I think my cats taken a few bites at the cord as well and they're still all love.

Do not know how durable they are but for the price a great set of cans.

Newegg.com - SENNHEISER HD 280PRO 3.5mm Connector Circumaural PROFESSIONAL Headphone

How does your daughter destroy them? I just have to keep mine out of reach of the kids and have an old cheap set for them to play with.

They really are not any good for what you pay for them, they have ok sound quality, but something like Sennheiser HD 280pro's will destroy them.

I was recommended this set Closed-back dynamic audiophile headphones, 53 mm drivers with neodymium magnet systems, 3.5 mm connector w/ 1/4" adapter: Electronics

when I was in Taiwan, but turns out they didn't accept American Express.... so I didn't get it
