Anyone got any recommendations for headphones with at least a 3.5m long lead?

Hoping to spend no more than £100.

Exactly. any headphones plus this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Stereo-Socket-Headphone-Ex...

ETA, in terms of headphone recommendations, I've got a set of these which I like. http://www.sennheiser.co.uk/uk/home_en.nsf/root/pr...

Good value for what you pay (should be under £50), pretty good sound quality and they fold up nicely, which most 'over ear' headphones won't, so you can fit them in a large pocket, bag etc. They also isolate external noise fairly well, and sound much better than any in-ear headphones I've ever tried.

I had heard that using an extension lead drops the sound quality, particularly if combined with a 3.5mm to 6.35mm adaptor.

I guess it doesn't matter at this price point.
