Goldy, I've been reading up on the M50's and they seem to be getting amazing reviews and are everything I think that I'm looking for. I'm going to see if I can hear a pair at a local shop before I buy them. Thanks for your help!

I guess I should have mentioned that I do want closed headphones. I will definitely check out those headphones you guys mentioned, thanks.

Hey guys, I'm brand new here and equally as new to the headphone culture. I've been searching for a nice pair of headphones for myself for the past couple weeks, reading reviews, endless Google searches, etc.   Some of the pairs that I've looked into are: Sennheiser HD555 and Shure SRH840...
