There is not a more recommended brand than the Audio Technica ATH-M50's. They are over the ear and VERY comfortable.

For reference, here is the Amazon page with amazing reviews: http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATH-M50-Professional-Monitor-Headphones/dp/B000ULAP4U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1333642080&sr=8-1

Head-Fi reviews: http://www.head-fi.org/products/audio-technica-ath-m50s/reviews

Here is Dr. Dre rocking them over his shitty ass own brand (alright this was probably before his were released but my point stands):

I bought a pair of Beats on Black Friday, returned them a week later and ordered these on Amazon, and could not have been happier.

They are the greatest sounding pair of headphones I have ever owned, and for only $130 (the price when I bought them).

Great isolation, deep bass (not over the top like some new generation headphones), awesome range, and just overall amazing sound quality. My only complaint is a little lack of sound stage but that is not really important for headphones imo.

I know I have seen people asking about headphones here in the past, so I thought I would give my input.

If you get these YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. They are often back ordered because they are so popular.

In the ear can never produce the sound quality that these can. I have tried all sorts of in ear, Sennheiser, Sony, etc.

Obviously these aren't ideal for running or anything, but for studying and doing work they are absolutely amazing. I wear them at least a few hours a day.

A decent pair of headphones is cheaper than a decent pair of speakers.

It's also more apartment friendly.

Stupid statement is stupid. You get 10x the sound quality for 1/2 the price you would if you bought desktop speakers.

On top of that, the isolation they provide allows you to listen to any music you want when in public areas, without disturbing anyone.

Why listen to music on anything less than the best?

I disagree. The ATH-M50's are the most recommended headphones on the market.

Looks like you over paid, they are $130 on Amazon with only decent reviews. http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-HDJ-1000-DJ-Headphones/dp/B0002DV7Z2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1333642835&sr=8-1

Or I am someone who enjoys music?

A trendy person would be rocking $300 Beats by Dre because they look nice.

Get on my level Clip.

Kind of pointless to argue when we have not tried each others lol. But I guarentee if you go ask on /r/headphones or on head-fi you will find everyone agrees with me.

I'd love to see the link that states these are the most recommended headphones on the market, from an actual respected review site or syndicate, not what a bunch of consumers say.

Aren't consumers the ones recommending them?

I trust consumer reviews over review sites any day and Head-Fi is the "go to" site for headphones and they are ranked #2 with the #1 costing $999.99, so that should be enough right there.

Fo sho, I always go to consumer reviews of products, they have nothing to gain by giving reviews in favor of a product.

http://www.head-fi.org/products/category/headphones That list should explain it well enough. The #2 pair (ATH-M50's) cost $130, the #1 cost $999, and the #3 cost $500.That should establish them as the best headphones on the market imo, especially considering bang for your buck.

I guess for the most affordable to the average consumer, yes, the best bang for your buck, no quality headset period should have a microphone attached as well, although Logitech has made some recent improvements regarding soundcard issues with microphones attached to a headset.

These aren't the best overall, which is what I thought you were implying, because any Sennheiser pair over $300 will kill these on every level.

Head-fi is also a crock review website, they have been offering ring around the rosie reviews on most gaming/entertainment headsets for quite some time.

Going off of user reviews these average a 5/5 for every category except soundstage.

I am not quite sure how spending twice the amount on a pair of Sennheisers is going to get you past 5/5.

The Sennheisers may sound slightly better, but the price point does not justify it. This is why I said they are the most recommended headphones on the market, I never stated they are the best headphones ever made.

Use some logic nick arweenie.

Logic?

Coming from someone who is talking up a pair of headphones for $130 claiming that Jesus himself couldn't make a better pair.

I wonder then what Sennheiser is in comparison, even Logitech.

Why don't you use some Logic.

20 Hz - 20 KHz

Average human hearing range. Some people are special snowflakes and hear outside of that range, but most people don't. Its really not a good investment unless you're an audiophile.
