      My current headphones (Philips TAH8506) are pretty worn out from daily use and recently a bit of plastic on the side cracked, so I figured it'd be a good time to get new ones. Since I know very little about literally any audio hardware it seems a good idea to ask here. Things I'm generally looking for:

      • must be over-ear
      • decent sound quality; I'm not going to pretend I'm an audiophile, the ones I have now are sufficient so anything as good will do
      • connectivity: this is where things get tricky. My current usage is being connected through a jack when using pc and bluetooth when using my phone. These 2 connection modes are a must for me. However, I'd also really like if I was able to connect to pc over 2.4gz with a dongle because bluetooth latency is, frankly, awful. It's mostly why I use a wired connection to pc.
      • microphone is not needed (in fact I'd prefer if they don't have one)
      • ideally not more than $200
      • available in Europe without oversea shipping
      • nice to have, but not required:
        • a way to control playback (pause/volume etc) from the headphones. The ones I have now have a touch panel on the right and I occasionally use it (but probably wouldn't miss it)
        • ANC
        • cat-resistant cables (probably no such thing exists)

      I'd also appreciate general pointers regarding which brands provide good quality at a decent price to make searching easier. Thanks in advance for any answers!
