On the go headset advice

yannickverc

Hello people

 

I'm looking for a new on the go headset. Currently I'm using Dr Dré's for about 4 years already (I know, bad quality, overpriced, etc etc)

 

I was looking at the Sennheiser 558. I really like how they look and they are really good quality. Sadly they use a 6,something mm jack so I can't use those for my phone :( (I know I can use an adapter but that would be really uncomfortable to put in my pocket) 

Was also looking at the sennheiser momentum's but the headband looks really uncomfortable.

 

Price? Not really a price in mind. Don't wanna get some 2K headphones, but something like best bang for the buck.

I need over ear headphones (Forgot to mention this at first)

 

The looks are really important to me.

 

Thanks for your advice!

I heard good quality things about it but the headband looks really thin and uncomfortable :/

V-moda M100 + XL pads or you could go with oppo PM-3.

 

The momentum over-ear M2 actually looks super comfortable. I have the 1st generation momentum and there's almost no weight on the headband pressing your noggin

The headphones themselves are really lightweight, it's not supposed to be uncomfortable if the headband makes good contact with your head. Linus himself even said so.
