Wow..! A great deal!! I wish I could convince my dad why I want to spend more than 50$ on earphones... But it's probably for the best..

Well, I'm looking for a new sound card for use with my Altec Lansing MX5021 (2.1), I mostly listen to music(90%), and I've heared that Creative sound card are better for games and movies, and that there are better sound cards for music. Supporting surround is not a must, but certainly is a nice...

Thank you for your comments guys! I really don't mind if the headphones are closed or opened, and I won't be using them out and about, what i'm looking for is headphones for home use, and I don't have and amp (well, the closest thing to an amp is my Altec Lansing computer speakers MX5021...

Thanks for your comment. I think i'll get the A900, but I was offered to buy grado SR-60 for about 45$, only the box is open, not used or anything. I think i'll maybe get the A700 for home use and the SR-60 for portable use, at the same price of the A900 more or less, what do you think?

I mostly listen to rock, alternative and metal, and some rap.. so, for about 200$, which one would be the best? Grado SR225, Audio Technica ATH-A900 or Sennheiser HD595(50 ohm)? I need it to be easily driven out of my 4th gen iPod, and i'll probably get an amp soon. I can get the A900...
