Sketchy,
I bought the Sennheiser HME 100 Special Edition 2 headset back in March and would definitely recommend them. Comfortable and great sound quality.
I posted a similar question to you before I bought and replies were similar to the ones you're getting - it's all about personal choice. Worth trying before you buy.
