My brother got me an audio technica ATH-M30 in 2011. This before they even had the 30x. I've easily put 12k hours in em, just needed to change the ear cups. I drop them all them time from desk height too.

Every few years I've thought about upgrading for better quality but they get the job done well enough that I never pull the trigger. It's a consumers dream

    The Audio-Technica ATH-M line are quite sturdy, I've never really seen them break. The same goes for the Beyerdynamic DT-770-880/990 lines. And both companies sell replacement parts at decent prices in my experience for those rare times when sometime could break.
