Today I found some headphones that really surprised me, both in the specs and the price. They are "Ear Pollution" Mogul headphones, by iFROGZ.
What surprised me was the specs. I have never seen speca like these before, at any price!
Frequency response: 10 Hz to 30 kHz!!! (Human hearing ranges from a lower limit of 16 Hz to an upper limit of 24 kHz, and those are the extreme limits... not everyone can hear that low, or anywhere near that high.)
Driver Unit: 50 mm neodynium magnets
Impedance: 32 Ohms
Sensitivity: 115 dB +/- 3dB
Now honestly, I don't know whether the specs other than frequency response are all that impressive, but that frequency response is by far the widest I have ever seen, and I have looked around. These headphones can accurately reproduce ALL of what I produce, even the extended frequency ceiling on some of the more recent programs. And the sound is very good.
So I am going to suggest that for anyone who really is serious about using headphones, that you look into a pair of these. They are DJ style over ear headphones, 1/8th inch jack and 1/4" jack adapter.
And almost as surprising: they were $49.95 USD. Amazon has them in different colors for as low as $44.95. Definitely worth a look.
