what do you guys think of the Denon AH-NC732K? are they good headphones?

a bit off topic, but are the HD 595s open or closed headphones?

i just got to know about the Audio-Technica ATHANC7B. they seem perfect: the sound quality is apparently pretty good and they're really cheap, compared to the other cans mentioned here. does anyone know anything about them?

http://www.pricescan.com/ItemImages/ImagesL/543497.jpg im about to buy high-end headphones for the first time. i listen to rock, metal, etc. does anyone know something about these cans? they seem pretty good, and at a good price.

hows the sound isolation of the d2000s? can they be used while traveling, for example, on a plane, without annoying the passenger sitting next to you, along with you not having to put your ipod volume really high to stop noise from coming in?

is it worth spending $300 on the D2000s?

Monster is releasing a new model of the Beats by dr dre. http://evolveent.files.wordpress.com...ats-spin-2.jpg here is the link to the actual website: http://beatsbydre.com/products/Products.aspx?pid=B5616 don't know when they're releasing, but want to know more about them.

btw, does anyone know much about the Denon D2000 headphones? just wondering if they would be a better buy than previously mentioned cans.

i just got the sennheiser MX 460 earphones for temporary use (until I decide which headphones to best spend my money on). they were really cheap (about $18), and they're not half as bad as i expected. although they're s*** while traveling because there's no noise cancellation. i still cant...

what do you guys think about the Beats Spin? they're not out yet, but do you guys think they'll be better than the Studios? (i don't think there is a thread about the Spins). here is a link to the website: Beats Spin Headphones – Beats by Dr. Dre from Monster

ive heard them, and i think theyre pretty good. do you think the Ultrasone HFI-780 or the Denon AHD1001S would be a better buy than these? or are the beats better?

which ones (audio technica ath-m50 or the Shure - SRH750DJ) do you guys think are better for metal/rock, along with good isolating?

thanks for the replies. so basically Beats are off the list cwoo - u said the sennheiser model i have chosen wont compete with the mentioned Grados. which sennheiser would be as good as the ones i have mentioned? i kno the Grados are great for rock/metal, but what about noise cancellation...
