Headset for programming

[shibbyville]

Hello,

I want to buy a headset that I use when I program, which means I want to have full ear-coverage and noise cancellation both ways. Got a budget for about 200-300 dollars.

A feature I also want is being able to increase the volume. Each headset I have used with my Macbook Pro got a low volume output. Any suggestions?

what works best for me are some gun range ear muffs that go over a cheap pair of earbuds.

Nice solution, but earbuds are not comfortable hours on end, and I already have comfortable earbuds.
