What are your favorite headphones? When and why do you use them? Are you happy?

Each Tuesday we open our mic to readers and lurkers alike to come out of the woodwork and tell us your thoughts and opinion, your experiences and mistakes, what you love and what you hate. We want to hear from you, and here’s your chance.

What is your favorite brand and model of headphones? How did you discover or choose them? Are you happy?

Do you use earbuds or huge ear muff headphones? Do you mainly use them when listening to music or producing it? Do you wear them in public or private?

What are the main things someone should look for when buying new headphones? Are there any good cheap headphones, or does price win every time?
