Ive owned a grip of K240's in my life,one for every part of the world I'd end up in,and they are always wonderful.Its been 25 years since my first pair,and I would buy them again in an instant.Most comfortable,and reasonably priced.

I am listening to my new Skullcandy Grind Bluetooth Wireless on-ear headphones w/ built-in mic, as incredible value at $29 currently on Amazon. Not too many true full-size "on-ear" types like this, which I prefer myself, Skullcandy sells a few different versions.

LOL, OMG, I just now found this old thread in my Mail. I'm not sure why this thread didn't pop up in my "in box" years ago!
At any rate, I had purchased (some time ago) a pair of GRADO LABS SR 80's. All in all, I find the Grado's to be ok sounding Headset
however, due to age, the Head Band is almost completely in ruins. I had to have replaced the PLASTIC (snap on) swivel part (that holds the actual Ear Speakers).
OUTSTANDING Customer service (no charge) from Grado. Thumbs UP! I must say, the EAR Speakers (and foam cushions) themself have held up rather well and work fine.
All this being said, I find that I (personally) do NOT like the "feel" of this type of Headset resting/pressing ON my Ears. It's kind of weird but, I must have SUPER sensitive (outer) Ears.
This is to say, the Phones are NOT even tight on my Ears however, they bug the Hell out of me. So, I will be seeking a new pair of "OVER the Ears Headphones in the future". Hopefully, this will happen within the next fifteen years! Thanks for the suggestion Yamahalic. I'll check it out!
