Question Which Ultrasone is the best all-rounder?
I'm very pleased with the quality of the Zino, but I'm not quite sure if it fits my head correctly. I'm thinking about trading it in for another model.
I want to use the headphone for everything: vinyl, CDs, PC and portable media player.

This is what I'm looking for:
- comfortable fit (say my head's a wee bit too small for the Zino)
- short or replaceable cable (I already bought an extension cord for the Zino)
- not too much isolation

What do I have to look out for? Which impedance would you recommend?
Money can be an issue but I'm planing to use them for 3 to 5 years. (No, Edition 8 is not affordable for me! )

Edit: Nevermind, I'm keeping the Zino. I didn't extend the wings far enough.

How about Ultrasone Pro 2500?
I think it good for both of movie and music.

HFI 780 is great if you're listening to elektronica, dance etc. And the HFI 2200 is supposed to sound great just out of an iPod
