    Headphone help

    I'm looking at a couple different headphone sets to purchase:

    http://www.amazon.com/Kicker-HP541-D...507974&sr=1-23

    http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-RP-H...507974&sr=1-15

    I'm a big dude with an above-average sized head and ears so I'm concerned about the comfortableness of these. I am also hoping for ones that fold up because I'm taking them with me on a 10 hour flight. And, finally, with that in mind...I want to be able to wear them for more than 2 hours at a time without pain/heat.

    My question: Which one should I get? Or do you have any others that you would recommend?

    What kinda music do you listen to? Are you looking for the best sound reproduction, or a colorful sound signature(such as more bass emphasis, or more focused mids). As you looking definitely for over the ear headphones or are earbuds an option? What is your maximum budget?

    Maximum budget $100 +/- $25. I'm not an audiophile, but I don't want them to sound like shit, so to answer your question...the best sound for the best dollar. I have had earbuds, but all of them without fail end up hurting my inner ears. I have TMJ in my right ear, so I don't like anything against it.

    I've recently come across this post below and there seem to be a lot of good things being said about these ones:
