MSI branded Steelseries Siberia V2... mainly because they were free!!

[Friesiansam]

AKG K92s plugged into the motherboard for videos and games, I don't care about surround sound, plus a pair of Shure SRH1540s plugged into my DAC/headphone amp (Audiolab M-DAC) for music.

None ATM use the poor speakers in my screen, i would like a nice gaming headset, but as no one have made a game i would like to play competitive i am in no hurry.

For normal listening to music i still have my old set of Beyerdynamics i have owned since the late 80ties, but they have not been in use since 1990.
Really lately i only listen to music in the car, and that's getting pretty rare too, pretty much only in the summer time i do that, and i am no longer spending small fortunes on ICE for the car.
My current car have a cheap 2DIN head unit and the factory door speakers, no room for the 12" sub i do still have in storage.

Feeling old anyone ? :-),,,, or young for that matter.

AT M40X's. Bloodly love em, 40 quid from cex 2 years ago. Best thing is I can buy another pair from them and return these Broken if they ever do brake after standing upto the british weather (I do clean them)

[Saracen999]

Several pairs.

Serious musical use = Stax electrostatics.

General use = Sennheiser .... err, forgot the number. 580? 600?

Travelling = Shure earbuds. Again, don't remember model number. Nit cheap, but not silly expensive either. £150-ish IIRC.

Oh, and a very old pair of noise-cancellers for flying. Sennheiser IIRC, but I think a good 20 years old, maybe 25. Could do with replacing these, if I get a round tuit.

I used to do most of my listening on speakers, but with acquisition of little people in my house, I do it less now. Headphones to me are a convenience to others.

My home PC I use Audio-Technica ATH-PDG1 open-backed headset. Whilst it's billed as a gaming headset, it does a fantastic job on music, and the open-backed nature gives a lovely sound and makes them very comfortable to wear.

At work I use my trusty old Sennnheiser HD212Pro closed-backed. A little bass heavy, but still crisp and well defined. The closed-back style is good for a shared office, but does get uncomfortable after a full day.

Then some Sennheiser CX 275s for the rare occasion I'm listening to music on the move.

Sennheiser HD650 at home, Bose QC35 bluetooth noise cancelling on planes - I fly long haul a lot and I wouldn't be without them!

[Skyflier]

Turtle Beach X12's as i do the majority of my music listening at my PC. They're getting on a bit now but the sound quality is still very good. If im out & about i use some basic Skullcandy earbuds.

[3dcandy]

Sennheiser HD280 Pro or when on phone the AKG branded buds that come with my S10

[b0redom]

Mixture:

Bose QC35 noise cancellers on the train commute.
Bose Soundsport ear buds or Aftershokz Titanium whilst exercising depending if I need to hear ambient noise or if I'm in the gym.
Aftershokz XTrainerz for swimming - by far the best waterproof/swimming headphones I've ever used.

Sennehiser HD 598 closed back for desktop use
KZ ZS10 Pros for mobile
Corsair HS70s for gaming
Thinking of getting the He4xx planar magnetics

[g8ina]

Sennheiser HD580 main, plus several pairs of lesser Senns (202), Senn HD238, a couple of sets of comms headsets for my ham radio, plus a few sets of IEMs, including my latest the Senn i800 clones off GearBest for 14 quid which are fantastic

[lon3wolf2002]

For PC gaming and watching films/TV and listening to music on the PC BeyerDynamic MMX 300, for console games Turtle Beach Stealth 600.

[nar53]

For general listening with the freedom to move around I use my Sony WH-1000XM2 bluetooth phones. For proper listening I use my lovely old Sennheiser HD600's fed via a Schiit Modi3 & Magni3 (also known as a Schiit Stack) which inturn plugs into the USB on my Hackintosh. Its a great combo.
