Any closed headphone or IEM will prevent noise from leaking out - there are dozens of choices. What's your budget?

Sennheiser HD-485 or Alessandro MS-1.

I wouldn't use an open headphone for any kind of monitoring. The AKG K271s would fulfill your needs. Very neutral and airy, detailed, and decent soundstage.

I would get a closed can like the DT 250 or K271s

Both are great. I prefer the PX100 for my music.

Master of Puppets

I'm also a fan of the PX100 for this kind of usage. Small, lightweight, not leaky, and completely open. Quote: Originally Posted by replytoken What I really want is something small that will give me the same sound...

www.amazon.com ships internationally, and has prices as low as anybody. Same goes for www.towerrecords.com and www.cduniverse.com. www.arkivmusic.com and www.mdt.co.uk are great sources for classical music in particular. I think those...
