First time buyer, help needed

[himanshuVB]

Hello,
 
First of all, I have never seen a forum so dedicated and well organized as this one. Truly deserve the reputation. So, like every first time curious buyer, I searched a lot of headphones which fit my budget and narrowed the results to few. These are the finalists
 
1. Sennheiser HD-515
2. Sennheiser HD-202
3. AKG K 420
4. JVC HARX900
5. JVC HARX700
6. JVC HAM750
7. Audio-Technica ATH-M40fs
 
I listen all kind of music and mostly through my PC or iPhone. These will be my first serious investment in full size headphones so I was wondering if I could get some expert help from this forum. If you can spare more time on detailed response, it would be nice if you tell the reason why you'd pick the one you would pick from this list and If you don't want to leave response, please vote in the poll below. If you want to suggest anything that is not on the list, you are welcome too. I
 
 
Thanks in advance
 
Himanshu

Welcome to headfi!
 
a couple of questions...how important is portability? which kind of music you like? 

 

[himanshuVB]

I listen variety of music but I enjoy classical, jazz, vocal the most. I am looking for best sound quality, portability is not as important.
