If you're okay with clip-ons, Koss KSC75's are pretty good. For IEM's, the Fontopia's aren't all that bad. - lk

To think people want to hit that age just to do legally what they've been doing anyway for years... heh. - lk

DT770/80's your solution. It works wonderfully without an amp. Best sounding headphones under $200. - lk

Getting them? I wonder how they compare to Sony's HD line? - lk

Might want to break then in, too... try a bowling ball, Sennheiser told me (seriously, that was their recommendation). The 280 Pro's proved to be too tight... I liked their clarity, though. - lk

The 75's rock - lk

This should make these a lot easier on the ears. Sucks for the portability, though. - lk
