I am looking for a set of headphones for general, multi-purpose use. I'll be using them 50% of the time with my ipod at work (mostly rock, some jazz and electronic as well) and 50% for gaming on my computer at home. I also need a closed set, as I will be using them at work and occasionally for travel. Isolation isn't really important, but not leaking sound is. My budget is around $100. As I'll be using them with an ipod, I'll need some that are easy to drive without an amp. They should also be comfortable enough to wear for several hours a day. I realize at this price, I'll probably have to make some compromises in sound quality. I'm looking at the Sennheiser HD-280 or the Audio Technica ATH-A700, would either of these be a good fit, or are there other models I should look at? Thanks in advance!
