Thank you for your advice. I am definitely leaning toward the HA-S400 at this point, just want to make sure they would fit on my head. I have a narrower than average head I think.
Forgive my ignorance, but what is a "CAL"?
Unfortunately, I am not familiar with many of the headphones you mention. I use the HA-S400 often, mainly as a portable headphone. (I keep it in my backpack.) You may also consider the Beyerdynamic DT-235 which may be a little more comfortable. (Remember, however, that comfort is a very subjective thing.) The DT-235, however, has a long cable and is less efficient than the HA-S400. All considered, it seems that you may want to try the HA-S400; it is priced lower than almost all your other choices, it is knows for its transient speed and good dynamic contrast (which should help with IDM), and it is portable. You strategy may be to get it and decide whether to complement it later with something more substantial but less portable (like a CAL!).
