My girlfriend needs some relief from the noise at the office and I'm trying to convince her to avoid a typical noise cancellation solution for maybe a sealed solution. The beyerdynamic DT 250-80 are about the right price but I was wondering how well they isolate you from office noise? She'd be using an iPod with no amp for her source. Her other requirement was no IEM because she doesn't like the comfort of the IEM and because she prefers others can SEE she has headphones on. Also, she thinks having a big headphone that covers the entire ear will be more comfortable than one that doesn't envelop the ear. She tried my AKG K 81 DJ and didn't like the way they felt. She also tried my HD 580 and claimed they didn't block out enough noise (which stunned me).
