I have a good pair of Sennheiser HD-598 headphones.  I used to listen to it morning , noon and night .. instead of a normal stereo system .  Now I barely use it, mainly at night so as not to disturb the neighbors.      There is no way headphones can match a good stereo system, even one that...

How many people do it?  do you get the ones that let you hear horns and sirens?  How has it worked for you?

I notice that most of the threads here ask people what sort of headphones they should buy.      What should I get?  I am willing to spend from $10 to $1000.     Do all the research for me and I will get back to you.
