Does cord noise bother you? The last few times I've tried to use wired headphones, I was incredibly annoyed by the sounds created by the cord touching stuff.
Are you using a smooth / rubber cord or one of those rough, braided cords? I usually use modified KOSS headphones and some Verisonix cups. They've all got smooth cords, so I almost never notice if it touches things, but I'm mostly wearing on-ear / open backed headphones that wouldn't likely transmit that too much.
