HD558 vs. DT770 vs. K701? Comfort!
I have no experience with the 558s or 701s but own the 770s. They are fantastically comfortable - I have heard them described as pillows around your ears. Not sure where you are looking but I got the 770s for ~$170 a year ago. You should be able to find them under $200.- Idiosyncra3y

@ChicaneBT I am fairly new to this, but just bought some Beyer 770s and can definitely vouch for the ear pads. Incredibly comfortable. Had them for only a few days but have had no trouble listening for 6+ hours while I work. I am also very impressed with the headphones, and if you...- Idiosyncra3y

Does anyone have experience with headphone cases. I just bought some Beyer 770s and would like something to carry them around in - they don't fit in my laptop bag... Any suggestions?- Idiosyncra3y

@urbanhusky I am very new to this, but what you at looking for sounds very much like the beyerdynamic 880 or 990 Premium. They are incredibly comfortable, even with glasses and are German. Amazon lists the 990s at around 350 - 400 US, so that leaves you quite a bit to get a good amp...- Idiosyncra3y

Thank you hipster, much appreciated. Finally, does anyone have any knowledge of "cobrasonics". They have a great reputation on ebay, and claim to be an authorized reseller of Beyerdynamic, but I can't verify that anywhere. They also claim a worldwide warranty but again I can't find details...- Idiosyncra3y

I am *reasonably* settled on the Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO 80 Ohm, with perhaps a fiio e11 amp. Ideally I would like to be able to listen from both my PC (Acer 7741, boring intel...- Idiosyncra3y
