I've recently started working in a cubicle, and can't stand to have canalphones in for that long, so I need to get some new headphones. It's not that noisy a place, so I don't care about isolation, but I don't want to annoy everyone else with my music. I don't listen to it very loudly, but my space is only divided on 3 sides with a partition about 4 1/2 feet high, and it's open to another person's space.I assume this means I need a closed type headphone. I listen to alternative rock, world music, news, etc., and plug my headphones into a MacBook Pro.
I'm willing to spend up to about $100 IF that gets me something comfortable, that won't put pressure on my head and make my ears sweat. Price is somewhat flexible, but not over $150 or so.
I was set on the Sennheiser HD-555, but then I learned about its open design. The HD-280 would seem to be the obvious pick, but I've read mixed reviews of the comfort level with these.
Any suggestions will be appreciated!
