Hi all
Im a long time lurker of these forums, finally signed up the other day.
I currently own Denon D2000 and I've had them for about a year, learnt about FLACs and WASAPI and amping with them so I've quite a memorable time with them, and the best part, is that the cable is office chair proof.
Anyway I need a set of cans for me at work, there are a number of reasons i cant use the Denons, namely i dont want to drag them everywhere, they leak sound like a molases, and the bass is "TOO" good, it distracts me when i try to work, and i want to expand my arsenal.
What i need:
The sites i would prefer to use are
headphonehk.com
thomann.de
Simply because i stay in South Africa and things just tend to work out cheaper from those locations.
(I am open to others.)
I WAS looking at the Ultrasone 780 simply because i have been eyeing one for a while, but i think the bass will be a bit much (I might buy them anyway just because i want them, but not for office usage.) I also came across the AKG k701, which apparently leaks sound, but at the price im getting them... its hard to say no.
So suggestions?
P.S for what its worth I will probably invest in a Hisound RoCoo P aswell within the next months.

What i need:
- supreme comfort
- low sound leakage (doesnt have to be perfect, so around the AKG 242 level [3 feet])
- not alot of bass (I love it, but medium/high levels distract me too much)
- It would be a plus if its easily driven, but not crucial.
- short OR interchangable OR strong cable
- I think a laid back sound is less distracting
- NO sibilance, im quite sensetive to it and it really makes me cringe.
- pricing: ZAR 2000 ~ USD 250 ~ EUR 200 ~ HKD 2000
