...which are convenient to use with glasses? It is desirable, but not obligatory, if the headphones will be with a microphone.

I don't know how to name this type of headphones in English, but on the Logitech's site it's named "around-the-ear headphones".

Now you can find a giveaway. Something was wrong but now it's ok.

I guess on ear headphone will be great for glasses people :D

Try Sony MDR-XB400 for cheap one, or Grado SR60i both have good bass for cheap price :D

I tried some on-ear headphones. It's inconvenient for me and hurt my ears (because of glasses). But thanks anyway.

Try Astro Gaming or Steelseries. I have Siberia V2 from steelseries atm. I can recommend those. But if you like Logitech products then they have some pretty solid headsets as well. Some good logitech ones.

Some people below said that "gaming" headphones have a horrible quality of sound. Can you confirm or disprove it?

"Gaming" headphones usually have pretty shitty audio quality (yes fellow gamers, your "pro gaming headsets" are actually quite bad), but if you're only going to be using them for games or maybe listening to music every once in a while it shouldn't be a problem and you could do with a pair of "cheap" ones (i still recommend you to stay far away from the extremely cheap ones) . If you are an audiophile and want crystal clear sound you might want to put a few hundred dollars on them.

I'd recommend you to go to a few stores to try out headphones to get a feel of the audio quality and see how they fit on your head. :)

Oh and the ATH-M50 (down V there) are quite nice.

Thanks. I want only to play games and watch videos. Probably I found headphones for me, but they are a little bit expensive.

Thanks, but as I said some comments above, semi-open headphones is inconvenient for me and some of them also hurt my ears.

Isn't it USB-only?

Nope, you can plug it in without USB, but you will have only stereo sound then (which is really good too).

I have glasses as well, and it's more than 1 year that I have my siberias (these ) and do not bother me at all,even tough I think it depends on what kind of glasses you have,mine are more rigid.I once tried the type that go around your ears(something like these) but those really hurt your ears as the glasses go on top of them and put pressure on the ear.
Otherwise you should try to get an in ear type with an external mic, or try a pair with extra soft padding.If you have an audio store nearby you should really go and try them there,and see what is more confortable for you.

In Siberia I don't like these things.

Otherwise you should try to get an in ear type
Every time when I do something (play games or just walk, for example), in-ear headphones drop out of my ears ><

But thanks anyway.

You don't even notice those things.
As for the in ear headphones I can agree, that's why I don't use them as well.But unfortunately this means you have little choice :/
Have you tried to see a pair that have extra soft cushions?There are some semi professional headphones that have larger cushions for more comfort, you could try that..

Yeah, I tried. Maybe I have big ears, but they drop out of my ears anyway :(

Sennheiser HD201, absolutely great for price, I use them with glasses with no problems, and probably (IMHO) best sound in that price range.

I'm about the only person I know that hates the HD201 and 202. The CX200 is the better Sennheiser headphone for that price range.

I also don't like shape of 202, but 201 are great. If your headphones are the in-ear ones, they are IMHO much less comfortable, won't offer as good quality of sound as larger ones, are tiring, at least to me, plus there are health concerns.

Avoid anything that says "gaming" if you care about sound quality. I have glasses and around the ear headphones are pretty comfortable. I don't know what your budget is or what stores are available to you but I'll throw in Sony MDR-V6, Audio Technica ATH-M50 or, what I'm using, Jaycar Pro Monitor

Audio Technica ATH-M50s
Superlux 668b - Removeable cable
Superlux 681 - Removeable cable
AKG 240 - The headphones I use. Removeable cable. Unliked the Superlux headphones the removeable cable is a mini xlr to 3.5mm which can be pretty hard to find online. Comes with a 9ft cable you can replace it with a 3ft one for about $13 online.

As AloXX said ignore the headsets/gaming brands ones. They're known for having horrible audio quality.

I second the ATH-M50s. Had mine for about a year and love em. Only thing is, is that they are just headphones, No mic.

I got some ATH M30s a while back, definitely like them. I'm sure the M50s are that much better

Currently using Logitech G35 and satisfied. Though in some cases I find the volume to be a bit low for my liking but just a small complaint.
I hear the 430 is better.

I have glasses too and had trouble with headphones until I bought my Sennheisers these are super comfortable, excellent audio quality and probably last forever (build quality is superb). Now, I know they're a bit expensive compared to gaming headsets but trust me, these are from a different planet so you won't regret the extra $$ spent (I had Fatality gaming headset before and couldn't use it because of my glasses, sound quality was poor also).

No idea how you hid it, but you hid it well lol cant find a trace!

As for headphones i usually use Logitech over ear headphones from 20-50 bucks but right now i am using 2 headsets at the same time, the logitech is for the headphones and i put another headset around my neck that is not too expensive (like 15 bucks) but has a great microphone for microphone purposed :D
But for the glasses part, i have never wore glasses, but i think that if you have a over ear headset then the headset will hold the glasses neatly in place (i think)

Every time I try to beat the sound quality of the Sony MDR-E 818 LP earphones (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00005QBUU/ref=oss_product), I get sorely disappointed. They're pretty cheap, the sound quality is absolutely crystal (none of that overdriven treble/bass crap), with the only drawback being their lifespan can be as low as 6 months due to the usual issues with "loose wiring" and one of the ears losing signal. My last pair just lost signal to the left ear today, but they've been solid for the last 14 months.

It's pretty bad actually, they're kind of the baseline that I judge all other headphones/earphones by now, and it's really making it difficult to find alternates. "Meh, the treble in this is really tinny and horrible compared to my usual" or "I can't hear the actual sound over this dumb over-cranked bass compared to my usual" are my normal responses. If the wiring would only last longer it would be absolute god-tier, but then again I use mine for everything, so they get scrunched up in my shirt/coat pocket and unravelled all the time, which probably doesn't help their lifespan...
