I have never purchased a bad Sennheiser product, and this is no exception. I am really in love with these headphones. They are a replacement for my Sennheiser PX-200 ii headphones which I have had for over 3 years now. These HD2.30G headphones are SUBSTANTIALLY more comfortable to wear, and the sound quality is equal if not better than the PX-200's.
The thing that always annoyed me with the PX-200 was the volume control because it was always resting right where I always wanted to rest my left hand on my desk. I do not have that same problem with these HD2.30G headphones because the volume control is right up near my head and the headphones, and combined with the longer cord these HD2.30G headphones provide, it is a much more pleasurable experience chilling out listening to music with these headphones than it was with the PX-200; and with literally all the other headphones I have experience with.
Update (purchased August 2017, update September 2018): they still are rocking and are still very comforitable after over a year later, which is amazing. Usually the foam will start to deteriorate by now but it's still like new for me except for some discoloration from skin oils. The only issue I had was the cord started to start to pull out of where it connects to the headphones because I regularly drop the headphones and accidently yank on the cord, but I got some gorilla hotglue sticks and a hotglue gun to reinforce the connection of the cord up into the headphone and that has held super solid for a long time now. The sound quality didn't even degrade while the cord was pulled out a bit.
