the t.bone HD 880

If you are looking for a pair of headphones that can play loud without distortion, this is a very good choice.

I am and audio engineer, I wouldn't use them for mixing or mastering (perhaps just to check a mix afterwards), the sound is too "midrangy" and to my ears not very pristine for making mixing decisions.

That being said, I checked the technical specifications of this headphones and they are comparable with the legendary SONY MDR7506 (which I also own). I compare them just to be sure that the loudness would be comparable with a professional pair of headphones, and I have to say they are equally loud.

Since they are rather affordable, they are made entirely of plastic which of course doesn't look fancy nor sturdy. However, they are quite comfortable I must say.

The cable is quite long, comparable in length with the classic Sennheiser HD 202.

Anyways, if you are looking for a pair of headphones to listen to music, to connect to a keyboard or an e-drumset that are fairly loud with no distortion this is your choice.

It's got great clarity but I find the low end is quite lacking, my headphone amp has eq so not a problem

Bought as cheap tracking headphones for band scenarios as I don't have the budget for higher end headphones when 8 pairs are needed

Combined with a headphone amp these can get loud enough for drummers, I swapped with the drummer (as we were just jamming with the mics set up to test it) and the volume nearly took my head off, still no distortion

How long they'll last I don't know but it's cheap enough to just buy another pair, it'd be nice if they had a detachable cable but at this price what's the point

May not be the most accurate-sounding headphones ever made (you'd generally want open-backed for total accuracy anyway), but when compared with my Sennheiser EH2700s they rate closer than the price tag might suggest. One thing that strikes you about the HD880s is how superbly comfortable they are - in this regard they're actually slightly superior to the Sennheisers for my money; no problem having these on for a long session.

For the price you could do much worse than a handful of pairs for budget band recording, the sound isolation is pretty good and while not awe-inspring sound quality is more than good enough for tracking and overdubbing. I wouldn't want to use them for any kind of critical mixing, but for general project studio duties (and for more everyday stuff like gym and jogging) you could do a lot worse.
