What headphone do you use with your MBR?

I use Sony MDR-V150 headphones. Pretty cheap for decent sound. $15 or $20.

I just bought a set of Ultrasone iCans and they should arrive early next week.  I'll give a report on them when I've had them for a while but they look interesting. They are designed for mobile use but they claim to give good sound.

I had a hearing scare last week - it was either the iPod ear buds that I've been using or standing too close to the drummer when he hits the bell on the crash cymbal - so I've been looking for something that is a bit kinder on my ears.  I've taken to running the MBR through an amp during the day but I use it a lot outside and portable headphones are a must.

If anyone has any experience with these then I'd be interested to hear (even though I've already paid for them).

Mine say KOSS  don't know what brand?  Bought at Wally world cheap. After buying the Br all I could afford,  but I am getting along with them.  I think they were around $15.

I just got the Ultrasone iCans that I mentioned last week.  I think that they are very good and very comfortable.  They are very light and open but the bass response is great and they give a sense of depth that I would normally associate with heavier closed headphones.  They are certainly the best that I have ever used that were designed for mobile use.  All in all, well suited to the MBR.  I played bass through the MBR then I got high up the neck of the Strat, I played a range of mp3s and tracks that are currently on there for practice.  Came up roses every time. Mileage will vary of course but I like 'em.
