I'm keeping old. I use the Sony MDR-v6. These were for the time a really solid $50 pair. I recommended them to someone at work only to find out they are selling for over $100.

I run them with older schitt audio gear to drive them.

For me these are daily all day long wear. They feel light enough on my head and fit comfortable on the ear. The sound is pretty neutral it doesn't really seem to have a strong or a weak point. I'm not listening to great sources, so they feel a bit 'veiled.' I don't often get a clear sense of space like I can with near field speakers. Still everything resolve quickly, so nothing is muddy but it's absolutely not that transcendent sound.

When I need a wireless headset I use the Sony WH-1000XM3 It's a bit more bass and midrange forward than then mdr-v6
