I'm interested in replacing my philips shp 805 which sounds great (to me). Now I want to upgrade to something better. I've researched and found Seinheiser 419 and 429 or 428 and Audio Technica ATH-M30.   I just want to know which pairs are the best? Or if you have any other suggestions...

I own a pair of sennheiser  hd419. I found out for myself the best way to burn -in my headphones is to play techno music just loud enough so it won't crackle and pop. What do you head-fiers think of what I did. Is it the right way? Let me know if what I did was right.

on amazon they have some used and refurbished headphones "like new" condition at decent prices.  Anyone ever purchased from here before?

I'm willing to stretch it to $32, and get these: http://www.buydig.com/shop/product.aspx?sku=SRHD419   The Sennheiser HD419   However , the ones at monoprice are in budget too.  Which ones would be better ? The HD419 or the monoprice 8324 , or monoprice 8323 ?

I have a secondhand sennheiser hd419 and they are getting kind of loose now. I want to know if anyone knows if and how I can increase the clamping force on the headband.
