I loved my old V6, but it surely doesn't stand up to the awe-inspiring sound, fit and build quality of the M50, IMHO of course. Unless my memory is faulty... what were we talking about?
30 years of using headphones, I've never had such a problem with the cable. Now, the connector jack on the source units have gotten loose plenty of times. But never the cable. Anyway, unless you're pretty rough with it, I don't think it's a problem. If my headphones aren't plugged in, I simply wind up the cord gently and hang them on their stand, or lay them carefully on my bed and leave them there. You can also screw a bike hook into a stud in your wall, and hang them there. Or, hang them on a coat hanger that you attach to your door. Target sells those that require no tools: you simply hang one end over the top of your door, and then hang the headphones on the hooks.
Anyway, I would eat my shorts if you just didn't get overwhelmed with the awesome sound of an M50, and my shorts aren't so nice and clean. Certainly, in that price range for a closed can, there's nothing better for everything you mentioned hands down: durability, price, sound quality, looks, style, practicality (they swivel 180, and fold up, and work with any source without an amp), comfort, isolation, range of musical styles they sound good with, professional look, studio professional recommendations, hot looks from your girlfriend, etc. Really, is anyone going to seriously refute this? Honestly? Personally I'd love to know if there is something that compares which I may not know about.
And again, the M50S has the long, straight cord vs. the curly annoying cord.
Have fun!
Just look at her... remember your first time?
