@legolas

Go and check out any Planet M store near you...They stack up many of those so called "big" headphones that u seek. Personally, I have a creative headset...Dont know why u didnt find a "big" headset.....I mean how "big" do u mean by "big"??? The creative headsets are good, great clarity, deep bass....aaahhaaaaa!!

kunte, if they r big enough like this with a mic attached then fine...



not small like this...



am not expecting these models itself.. i know their prices must be way too high! like these @ abt 1000! now the definition of big mus be known to u! lolz but i dont want any headphones @100-300... may be i shud hav put it like this. >600 <= 1000.

@legolas

I very well know what u mean to say by "big"....Dont worry I have taken professional Dj training & so understand the naunces of headphones & their features very well.....

U can get some lovely headphones for that 600 to 1000 range....Go for the noise cancelling types from Sony orCreative.....As for the headphones in da range 100 to 400 u can get some decent pieces, but dont expect anything fancy...They conk off any time....

HK

P.S. @legolas.....I preferred being called HK (Thats how I sign all my posts) rather than kunte.....though nothing wrong with "kunte" either....

Legolas - "big" has a technical term. It's called Circumaural or Closed headphone.

And these, not fully closed, but very comfortable and great for the price

@legolas

Well...Whenever I mean headphone. I actually mean headset itself....Well, dont worry, most headphones in da Rs 600 to 1000 range do have a good quality attached microphone too.....

And, BTW I am HK & not KH....lolz...But its alright....sounds better than da earlier "kunte"
