    I love the sound from my sennheiser 560S

    Education is extremely important.

      Thanks for the reccos...

      Remember, I'm looking for only 2 qualities - comfort and price.

      Sound, etc are secondary. Way, way down on the list.

      But, I'd love a coiled cord.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        I’d strongly recommend open back/open air headphones over noise cancelling. Much more comfortable when wearing over 30 minutes.

          Sennheiser 599s are nice and you can select your own cord. They are about $130. What price is cheap for you? Under $50?

                  Can you bump up to $90? The HPH160s are nice and that’s a good deal https://www.amazon.com/Yamaha-HPH-150B-Open-Air-Neutral-Headphones/dp/B013WW90FI/ref=asc_df_B013WW90FI/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312026001792&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=9036277712241237980&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9008163&hvtargid=pla-570982703958&psc=1&mcid=5dbdbfa7b6ff34d7857cbe4f2c0acad0&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIyf2ssYXtggMV3EtHAR2BrAPIEAQYASABEgLGuPD_BwE&th=1

                    Putting on my "wish list."

                    Thanks.

                    ETA: Oh, are the earpieces big enough to fit over my ears?

                        Multiple kids, right? Can you tell the kids to pool their money together and get you one nicer gift rather than multiple more affordable gifts? Or do you mean under $75 from all your kids combined?
