Hi
So basically a while back I picked up some Grado Sr80i's and I am pretty happy with them, (although I don't think the headphone output on my Rotel amp is powerful enough :S ).
However as they are open back they spill way to much for me to use at work (I work in an opening plan office). So I am looking for some fairly compact closed back headphones or some more comfortable in earphones.
I don't want them to sound utter gash so don't mind spending up to say £80 (more if necessary, less is good too) but equally they aren't for seriously sessioning my favourite music but more to give me something to listen to whilst working and to drown out people around me.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
PS: if it makes any difference, I tend to listen to a lot of prog (nektar, gong, floyd) as well as 60/70 (doors, zepplin) and also some more modern heavier stuff too like Electric Wizard and sleep.
