Headphones!

Has anyone got any suggestions for a decent "not too expensive" set of headphones?

I have a set made by Plantronics, and they have been great for a year or so, cost around $50. But they have a volume control on the cord, and I guess this volume control has been bettered a bit in time, and now the sound quality is nothing like when originally purchased, unless I "twiddle" with the volume control!!

So I'm looking for a headset that has a microphone attached, that has some sort of volume control on it?

Half price, not bad, headphones and mics are not pieces of equipment i use on my pc, though Im sure they have plenty of uses and might add another dimension to using the pc

I recently got some noise-canceling headphones, Aiwa HP-CN5. I need good headphones for my work and they definitely improve the sound over a Sony pair I had, although the Sony's are much more comfortable! Wasn't a bad price as I recall, though I hear there are some fantastico noise-canceling headphones out there, much more expensive! Oooh, a volume control right on the headphones would be nice!
