    any suggestions on good cheap headphones

    keyword cheap. keep quality in mind, but go overboard on cheap. i am short on cash and just want something for when i am gaming at night, so it doesnt have to be the best quality.

    You can get a set of Sennheiser HD212's for under $50. Check either headphones.com, amazon.com, or do it ebay

    Circuit City carries them, and they retail for $60, but they should be able to match online prices, as long as you have a printout of the price.

    Do a search in this forum and see how much we love them

    bromide,

    Hi,

    i am short on cash and just want something for when i am gaming at night, so it doesnt have to be the best quality.
    There are a lot of options for different applications, I second the 212Pro suggestion, if you want a little more cheaper but still with expetional performance, you can find Senn202 for $20-25 with very similar performace of the 212s, and another suggestion is KOSS 35s, very good for the money also.

    Good luck with your choice,
    Abula
