Hi all
New guy here. I just acquired a new Digital Piano and the built in speaker is a bit loud for the neighbors and wife. I have been going back and forth between crappy airline earbuds with an adapter and my old David Clark H10-13.4's. The X11's stay at work so I haven't tried those out with the piano yet. Although the DC's were $300 I was also paying for a mic, insulation and bulletproofing. Does anyone have any thoughts on what I might be missing by using those rather than a pair of under $100 headphones. I did some searching with the words "digital piano" and was thinking about the following:
ATH AD700
Grado SR60i
Sennheiser HD-555
Any suggestions on expanding my search or which might be the best for my setup. Also let me know if you think the David Clarks are fine.

EDIT:
Just got back from Guitar Center. I tried Beyer DT770 Pro-80's and some AKG K240's on a Roland FP7. These were both over my price range but sound so much better than my David Clark headset. Question is... should I get the Beyer's on Ebay for 150 or get one of the previous three mentioned for less even though I can't try them out? Also, the AKG's were not as comfortable as they did not have as much room inside the phone for my ears.
