Comfortable Cans with In-Line Mic and Control

Hello from a new guy!

 

I'm looking for a great pair of around the ear headphones with excellent sound and comfort. They also must have an in-line mic and playback control for my iPod. I'm seriously considering the Bose AE2i's and have looked into the Skullcandy Roc Nation Aviators, though I don't care for their look and hear that the controller is cheap. I wouldn't mind diverging from Bose, but I haven't found much other than the AE2i's in my search. My budget is under or around $200. I listen to a lot of rock, some hip-hop, and even some 8-bit, among other genres. I will also use them while playing Xbox and understand that the mic won't work with it.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!

The V-Moda M-80, They have an in-line mic. I dont have experience with them though. 

 

You want something smaller? take a look at the Iems section.

The AIAIAI TMA-1 uses a replaceable 3.5mm male to male cable. There are cables that can be used that contain iPod controls and a mic. The TMA-1's can be had for $160 and a cable with mic and controls can be had for an additional 20.

Both the AIAIAI TMA-1 and the V-MODAs are too small. I tried on the Bose AE2is today and they were very comfortable. I like that they, unlike the Skullcandys, fully encompass my ear for the most comfortable fit. Does anybody know if they have a removable cable? I'm still open to other options other than the Bose. Any other suggestions?

Thanks for your help, everyone!
