I'm already super happy with my original Sony MDR-V700's for DJ'ing (had 'em 10 years and still going strong!) - but they're uncomfortable for extended studio sessions.
Looking to get a cheap pair of COMFY studio headphones to do the majority of my studio work on. I'll stick to the Sony's for DJ'ing, and maybe for doing final mixdowns. They sound fantastic.
I'm looking at these (just after a bargain pair of comfy can's):
Sony MDR-V150 Stereo Studio DJ Monitor Headphones
£7.95 - bargain! And they look comfy...
[EDIT: These are off the list after feedback from IvanPK. He siad they clamp TIGHT. ]
Samson CH70 Studio Monitor Reference Headphone
£15.50 - little more expensive. But I'd rather buy cans that aren't fakes...

Grunge Headphones - Grey: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics@@AMEPARAM@@http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31EPY8b8q1L.@@AMEPARAM@@31EPY8b8q1L[/ame]
£19.99 - look light and comfy...
GENUINE SONY MDR-v300 DJ STEREO STUDIO MP3 HEADPHONES
£31.95 - quite like the look of these. Are they really genuine Sony's, though?
[EDIT: I've read some reviews - sounds like these clamp on quite tight. No thanks].
Behringer HPS5000 Studio headphone
£33.40 - these look DOUBLE comfy...
[EDIT: I've read some interesting reviews on these. Sounds like you need to bend 'em about a bit to get 'em to fit nicely. Quite happy to do that. Another review said that these would only fit people with wide heads. Perfect.
[EDIT2: Arrived today - they are VERY uncomfortable. They clamp HARD. Sending 'em back].
Anybody tried any of these cans??? Right now the MDR-V150's are way out in the lead...
