    Hey guys.

    I bought a Plantronics .Audio 750 DSP headset, works great and has a really good boom microphone. It's flaw is that it sits on your ears so after wearing it for a few hours my ears start to ache :(

    So I'm looking for an upgrade. Budget is preferably under $200, so post your favorite headphones!

    My Sennheiser PC 161 for $90 were the best I ever had until they broke, I then went to buy a $3 replacement knockoff that feels and sounds the exact same.
