About the Sennheiser HD 280 Pro
Sennheiser's HD 280 stereo headphones are great for anyone who listens to music on-the-go. The padded earcups significantly reduce external sound, so the headphones can be used in high-noise environments, such as airplanes and buses. They also swivel for single-ear monitoring, and allow the headphones to fold flat for easy storage. And whether you're at home enjoying a new CD, or just listening to your favorite MP3 while traveling, these headphones deliver the sound of your music with clarity and fidelity.
From the review Sennheiser HD 280 Pro Headphones: Comfortable sound
"The HD 280 Pros are a good, basic set of headphones that can be a marked improvement over the earbuds that come with most portable audio devices. Even if you're not a DJ in a club, the tight seal of the earcups and the solid sound reproduction of the headphones make a winning combination. Whether you're looking for a good set of headphones for work, or just want better-than-average headphones for on-the-go listening, consider the Senneheiser HD 280 Pro headphones."

Features
Design: The Sennheiser HD 280 Pro headphones adjust to the shape of your head, with their joints, flexible materials and extendable arms. The closed design attenuates ambient noise up to 32 dB. They are very comfortable, even if used for long periods due to their light weight, soft, circum-aural ear cushions, and padded, adjustable headband.
Magnet System: These headphones use neodymium magnets, offering high efficiency and light weight.
Eliptical Circumaural Earcups: The HD 280 Pro headphones feature an around-the-ear design, with soft ear cups to provide optimum comfort in those places where sturdy material would rest on your head.
Impedance: With a 64 Ω impedance, the HD 280s are compatible with nearly any source.
Collapsible: The headphones fold for easy storage.
Single-Sided Cord: The coiled cable attaches to only one side (left), so it's less likely to get tangled when you move.
Full Size Adapter: The 1/4" adapter is threaded so it locks in place.
Replaceable Parts: Sennheiser headphones are modular for long service life. Ear cushions, headbands, and cables are easily snapped out so new ones, which can be ordered from the manufacturer, can take their place.
