hi there, am deciding between the ultrasone dj1's and the hfi-580's, how much difference is there, and would I need a portable amp for either as I would only be driving it from my ipod classic. Also are they as uncomfortable as everyone says ?

alright, thanks very much, you've set my mind at ease do you rate the denon ah d1100's ?
