I’m sort of mystified how someone could spend $250 or more for headphones when they only spent that much or less on the iPod itself. My experience with headphones is the constant flexing of the connector cord the headphones will fail with one channel going out and basically giving you a next to useless piece of equipment. I really don’t think it’s necessary to spend more than $50 maximum on a set of headphones.

I might agree that the IE6 are good headphone and obviously with a lower freq. range it is going to give a little better bass. The biggest problem i see about your comment are saying the SHURE SE310 are the most expensive at $299. I dont know where you get your headphone but you can get those headphones for $150 and even less if you look a little. The IE6’s are truely about $250 if you look a little you can find them for a little. So for the money I would take the shure’s and also Shure’s warranty is better but if you really want or need that extra bass then the IE6 should be your phones.
