so I wanna buy headphones with short leads

Thread Starter 

I have a denon D6000 (i cant remember the model but its the highest end they had 2yrs ago) connected to a home-built valve headamp. I also have Sunrise Xcape IE for portable listening.

 

But I'm after circumaural headphones for casual listening (utube/skype/movies on the ipad/lappy) preferably with short leads. I'm not too concern with sound quality for obvious reasons (i.e. my other gear) but obviously I'm not after junk either.

 

I have a budget of $100-$150 and it must have short or coiled leads.

 

 

any suggestions? ty

ATH-M50 with the coiled cable (the straight version is about 12 feet long)

How can you not know the model number of your $600 headphone?? It's like driving a Mercedes without knowing the model number. 

 

The HD 25 has a pretty short cable, same with any headphone with a coiled cable(M50 as mentioned above, Koss Pro DJ 100, some DT 770)

OP: you could try searching for "portable full-sized" or "portable cirumaural". Portable headphones will likely have shorter leads.
