Default Which portable headphone?

Max $230

doesn't need the most noise isolation, but sound shouldn't leak. Needs to be somewhat small, will be powered by a zune. Main music genres, classic rock, metal, and punk rock

Thanks for the help

Default music type?

Tell everyone what type of music you listen to. That will greatly help people match a can to you.

ATH-ES7 -$110
Senn HD25-1 with HD650 cable. (should get you a hair over $200)
Both are excellent choices as portables but are supra-aural.
Denon D100 is circum-aural but don't isolate very well.
K271S excellent in all respects but need an amp.
