I think the dre beats studio are the sexiest headphones + the sound quality? (if it wasn't for so many fake one's out there....I would have brought one now)  

 

What else comes to mind? Looking for one...that has great sound plus sexiness....

 

I was going to get the akg 271 mkii but I hear it's big and ugly...

 

Looking for one to use for daily ride in the subway....to block out the pan handlers.....from waking me up. 

 

also need one to hook up to my guitar preamp to hear me play.

I'm hard-pressed to find sexiness in the Beats and they don't sound particularly good, either. Besides, I would not wear them on the train around here. I'd probably get mugged for them.

If you want some isolation and good sound, try IEMs. They're no fashion statement, but the majority of them discussed here sound better than the Beats.

I would definitely look at iems like erik said..to me sq is way more important than a fashion statement..but Imo though I think the shure se530s look pretty sexy and from what I hear it won't dissapoint sq wise either..Beats don't sound the worst but definitely not worth the price

I gotta look out for them...

 

I had my heart set on the akg 271 mkii....but I don't want everyone look at me, thinking I am some weirdo.....with huge headsets on.

I would recommend IEM's also. I use RE-ZERO's at school, and personally I think wearing IEM's look much better than walking around with gigantic headphones, especially if it's around your neck...
