    I want some good headphones for my laptop when I'm at school or on break and need to listen to some music with. Are the HD-201's a good investment. I can't get the 202 because of some promotional offer conflict, but would the 201's satisfy my mp3 and movie needs? Thanks!

    The 201s are actually head-and-shoulders above the 202s and are among (if not absolutely) the best in their price range. Definitely well worth the money.

    +1 for the HD201s. An outstanding performer for the money... although the 202s aren't bad once they've had a while to burn in.

    My only reservation with the 201s is that they're quite bulky, making them awkward to carry round with you.

    Here's a review from headphone.com (aka HeadRoom) you may want to look at.
