Quote: I updated my original post with my shortlist :) Unfortunately not, they said they were online-only all they had were some low-end sennheiser and Beats.

I've narrowed it down to 5, so just need help choosing now!

Quote: Don't think they would be suitable for me because of the amount of sound they leak. I often watch something on the laptop while the family watches Downton Abbey or something, not sure they would appreciate hearing whatever I'm watching!

Quote: Thanks for letting me know - I thought maybe the D600 seemed more comfortable (i listen to music around 7hrs a day average so that's a big factor!) I also kind of prefer them aesthetically, hoping I might be able to try them tomorrow at a local store. Feeling very torn now, though!

Quote: Great :) At the moment my favourites are the Fidelio L1 and Denon AH-D600

Thanks for the suggestions :) I'm not too worried about isolation, as I get on fine in that department with the Apple earphones and I can't imagine they're that good! Do you wear glasses?

I've narrowed it down to a few headphones, here is a little about how I would use them: I listen to most genres, from dubstep to classical to disney soundtracks! They also need to be good for watching films and gaming. I would be using them mostly at home, but the option to use them out...
