Guys, what's a good pair of closed cans that won't look out of place at the office? Price-wise, I'm open to anything up to, say, $700USD.
Closed cans I want to hear are challenging enough to find, but throw in conservative good looks and I'm coming up completely empty. Sonically, I'd really like to snag some Alpha-Dogs or Primes, but they're a bit Spaceman Spiff-looking for office use. I'm considering some Shure 1540s, maybe, but I'm a little worried about comfort since the earcups have zero rotation and my head is rather wedge-shaped. Oppo PM-3s are an option, but they're almost so conservative looking I don't want to own them.
