simple enough question really. i bought myself a pair of HD 595's about a month ago, and my girlfriend took a test run with them recently and she's fallen in love with them utterly and totally. being shocked at the apparent huge difference between that and her default ipod earphones.
now, she's been moaning about having to deal with the noise in the tube(underground) etc for a while so i'm now on the look for a solid non-full sized closed pair for portable use as a gift. they'll have to be non-full sized because sexism or not; she's a woman and she wants to look good! full sized headphones look a tad silly for portable use.
any suggestions? budget would be £150 maximum, but the cheaper the better really. needs to really isolate/reducw noise though. oh, canalphones are a no-gbo. i've alkso got a pair of shures which she despises, she hates anything going in her ears etc. thanks in advance!
£150 = $300 obviously for you americans etc.
my initial choice based on reviews on amazon / etc is sennheiser pxc 300 and am looking for other options just in case and all that!
