Best Over the Head Headphones for Durable

i have them running through a cheap $20 behringer ha400 headphone amp w/ 4 outputs (id recommend and amp for these to get the full effect).

i hooked these up to my ipod and they are the loudest of anything that i've hooked up to it, including a number of higher-end buds.

also they come with 1/8" and 1/4" inch headphone jack/adaptor - so you can enjoy them straight out of the ipod or connect them to your audiophile headphone amp or your professional gear.

my only major gripe about the m50s is that the 'leatherette' ear padding's do promote sweaty ears, but they offer great isolation and minimal sound leakage.

in terms of quality, i can't really list anything technical but i've worn a lot of headphones and the quality from these whether you're listening to a 128mbps file on an ipod, a 320 file on an ipod

you won't see me walking around public with these on.

although they are very light and flexible, you can tell they are still built well and are farily sturdy.

i am able to accurately track my enemies without ever needing to see them, their footsteps work just fine ;).
