    Sorry no such thing exists.
    Cheap hedphones are the one that lasts like forever
    but they cost a lot more.

    Senhiser HD25 and Denon HP1000 are two examples.
    I have a pair of Senhiser HD450 (they do not make them anymore)
    that I bought 1980 and they still are like new.
    I also has a pair of Denon HP1000 that I have used for about 4-5 years without problems.

    If you buy 100$ HP it will last for 6-12 month so in a 10 year period you will spend 1000 – 2000$
    and still have no useable headphones…..

    Sennheiser HD201/205
    Shure SRH550 DJ
    AKG K519DJ
    Shure SRH440/SRH240
    Audiotechnica M50 (if you can get them below ~130ish)

    The shures are my favourite of the bunch. But I haven’t had the chance to listen to the K519DJ’s yet, so I can’t comment apart from the fact that I’ve heard good things about them.

    Yes, sorry, I forgot about the Shure. I have listened to them all and I do think they are very good in sound and build quality so I serternly recomend them to in addition to my previous post.

    I picked up a pair of deejay pros from sprayground and for 40 usd they’re pretty good headphones. The only issue and im sure that this is just an issue with my obeesity is that i can feel tge phines pushing on my throat.
