So what does everyone rock?
I have a set of Sony MD-300's I've had for about 7 years, and they have been real troopers. Been stood on about 100 times, been around the world a few times too. The Audio quality is OK for a set of old thrashed headphones.
I also have a set of Sony MDR-NC6 noise cancelling headphones. They are blatant rubbish. I got them off a mate who bought them, found they were rubbish, and forked out $600 for a set of Bose Noise Cancelling, which are fucken sweet, but $600? Jeeze.
A few hours ago I went and got a set of Sennheiser HD280 Professional's. Been giving them a listen to through the laptop, work PC, and Ipod and they are amazing. Certainly none of those will do them any justice for Audio output, so I can't wait to get them home and have a crank.

They are ok
"Noise cancelling" or something but you gotta put in a battery for that which I don't

I got a set of generic DJ style ones that I bought for $10, and they are amazing.
Also got a set of Skullcandy ones that I've barely used because the headband is too damn tight.

i rock these. a touch sub/bass heavy but still incredible. sweet as fuck for listening to techno/dance/electric etc. not as good for my meat and potatoes rock music though, but still plenty good enough .

a pair of sony mdr-nc5's that i've had for about 5 years. noise cancelling, but take a battery which kind of sucks. other than that, they are bad ass. just got a pair of some mad expensive shure buds from a buddy whose dad works for them. can't do anything physical in them or they fall out, though. sound quality is excellent.

I usually buy a cheap 10-20 dollar pair, as I break headphones alot, they fall off, or get stepped on, or sat on, or some extent broken by me or someone else.

Couldn't find a picture of them, cause they are mad old. Like I have probably had them like 8 or 9 years. But I have a pretty nice set of Jensen ear-muff style headphones. Pretty good sound considering how old they are. I could definitely go for a new pair, but they will do until they die. As for other headphones, I have a pretty generic logitech headset that I've used for just audio before.

My Mom asked me what I wanted for Christmas, so I told her I wanted a decent set of headphones, so I could crank my amp and not get the cops called on me. She got me a pair of Bose headphones, so now I use them for everything.

Nothing special, just a fairly cheap set of in ear Creative earphones. Think they're EP-630's or something, mainly bought them for using in cars, trains, planes etc. and they do a fairly decent job of blocking out outside noise despite not being true noise cancelling ones.
I always go cheap since I have a habit of losing or breaking them - plus I can't be arsed with huge sets of headphones like most of the ones posted so far.

Whenever I try to use the iPod earbuds, they never stay in my ear. Like my ear is missing the part that would make it stay or something. Am I the only one this happens to. Don't wanna have some freak ear.

I had problems with my old Sennheiser earbuds as well, didn't seem an especially good fit.
Another reason I went for in-ears, really.

That's the pair I want to get when I get a new desktop this summer. I use my iPod earphones for now since I primarily just use my laptop at school.

Well, mine don't fall out, but they don't sit right in my ears.

If you turn the noise cancelling on, does it fucken suck or what?It makes some small static noise thing which I guess cancels noise out. I have used it like once when I was at home and there was no other noise so I dunno
