Question Guess what? It's another 'which headphones' thread...

Hi all,

I'm after some headphones for late night TV/DVD watching, as well as non-communicating XBox 360 gaming.

Budget for this little project isn't very big at all, and I've narrowed my choices down to either the Sennheiser HD201 or the HD202.

Am I correct in assuming (as a complete headphone novice) that these will just plug directly into the headphone socket on my LCD TV??

Also, anyone with any recommendations as to whether to go for the 201s or the 202s?

Thanks in advance,
Lee.

I hate the Hd201 and I mean 'hate'. I found them to be really, really poor. Im certain that the px100 or px200 would sound better for less but have a smaller cup for the ears.

So what price range you looking at? Also how much sound can the headphones leak? It won't be no where near as loud as the TV.
