I am looking for suggestions for good, over the ear headphones. Currently own a pair of Bose, which are still functional, but getting old. I use a cochlear implant, serves similar purpose as a hearing aid, to simplify explanation, but i hear sound outside of my ear, hence the need for over the ear. Clarity and comfort, and of course, style, are most important. Thanks for any suggestions!
 
What is your price range?

BTW, don't touch Beats or Bose with a ten foot pole.

Don't have a real price range; I am open as long as they are quality headphones. Of course, I'd rather spend $200 than $500 :D
 
I have these in black which i love...

There isn't an overwhelming sense of base but the clarity is spot on.

Apparently they do them with a Mic as well which may be more suited to the iPhone.

Style, amazing sound and comfort. I've got these and honestly they should cost way more.

Looks I misinterpreted the term "Over the Ear".

Whoops my bad :eek:

Bowers & Wilkins C5 headphones. They are in-Ear design while the P5's are the over the ear style.

Great headphones!
