I want something that will last longer than Sennheiser HD202 and and has pretty good sound. I hate headphones with a lot of bass too me it sounds very muddled.
Have not heard them but on another forum there was a lot of talk on the Monoprice 8323's being really good for the price.
It looks like they added all that technology and then slapped crappy pads on this one too. Seriously, I think this is a good design to make this addition to. There is plenty of room inside the cups to add things, they are light weight, they have a good form factor (they fold into a pretty small tight package)....but why wouldn't you give it decent ear pads? Why go to the trouble to add bluetooth, but not put a MOMENT of thought into how they feel on l your head?...and now there's a wireless, aptX version of the venerable Monoprice 8323, the Monoprie 24735:

I just looked it up on the site and they are only $25.00. if they sound the same as the originals I would bet these are the best bluetooth over ear for less than $30.00. With good pads they are very light and comfortable and the sound is good. My issue with them was partially my preference for open backed headphones, and partially a slight echoey/boomy sound they had sometimes. I think with a little care put into damping they would improve in that regard....but if you like the sound of closed backs these are great for the price....and now there's a wireless, aptX version of the venerable Monoprice 8323, the Monoprie 24735:

Here they are painted gray and sock modded. Very fun versatile headphones.

and it looks like they have the same or very similar pads to the originals, which means you HAVE to get new pads for these. They are unlivable in stock form. I did a sock mod on them that helped, but really they just need something like the $12.00 Senitek pads.
They look significantly better in grey! Nice job.
