ANOTHER pair of headphones have broken for me now.
I must have gone through 3 or 4 in the past 12 months.
Is there any good ones i can get that are wireless? or wont die easily?
(did post this in disc board, but what the hey.)

Not Wireless but have a handy adapter switch that saves having to unplug them all the time...

I have the Gamecom 1 set, currently about £30 in Pissy Werld.

They look exactly like my Audio 90 ones, maybe they're just rebranded. And I like the way they've made the "too much bass" problem the reviewers picked up on for the Audio 90s into a feature on the gamecon 1; "MAXIMUM BASS" LOL!

Yep, they are, while I was hunting for a new headset i came accross 3 different versions of that one, the two you've mentioned and the dsp-500. In the end I settled with
this one which i'm happy with, good sound for the price and is comfortable.

Thread Resurrect!
My lovely foldable Sennheiser PX100s have just gone the way of many: intermittently one-sided. I seem to have this effect on headphones, but I thought I'd been looking after these quite well.
Anyway, can anyone recommend a replacement? And a voodoo charm to prevent wire breaks?

The problem is likely a lack of a stress relief boot on the headphones, same thing kills many, many logitech mice, so either buy stuff with them on, bodge yourself some stress relief, maybe even some superglue around the cable exit would support it enough to slow death.
or don't coil the cable around anything, ever. and it'll last longer.
