What would you say: which are closest to the sf 5s? I like the slightly...- wirbeltier

closed headphones
As I travel a lot by train I'm looking for a decent pair of closed cans which can block out the noise. How about the Senns 280? Any alternatives? Soundwise I like the Grado 60s very much, but they are not "closed enough". Any other recommendations? Thanks so much!- wirbeltier
