Hello, I use the Shure SRh840 for mixing and tracking.
They are comfortable and they do a great job.
They come with an extra pair of ear pads in case you ware out the first.
I have used these for 4 years now and haven't worn out the pads yet.
Also the cable is replaceable if something happens to it.
It is a cable designed for the earphones and you would need to order it from
Shure.
I use these alot at the computer even when I not mixing and tracking.
They are a closed set and they keep out the noise.
For other listening, I use a set of bose, open set.
Much smaller but excellent frequency response.
Let us all know what you decide on perchasing.

Hey guys, I'm doing some research on headphones, before I buy a pair. I'm
primarily looking for good tracking headphones, so isolation and comfort for
extended wearing is crucial. I might also consider buying a pair for late night
sessions (not mixing), just to listen and/or work on recordings at late hours.
Any ideas or suggestions? I know this is a very subjective matter, but want to
see if I can get some kind of general idea. So far I'm looking at: Sony
MDR-7506, Sennheiser HD 280 PRO and AKG K 240. My budget for now is around
$100, could go up a bit more, but I just want something to get started on, will
upgrade later. :) So if you have any comments, suggestions or experiences, feel
fre to share!
THX, D!J!X!
