hey guys! havent been here for awhile!

well im using A900s now with a CMOY. i got KSC75s, but they kinda died now, and i wnat closed cans because the subway is too noisy for open cans anyways.

could i have some opinions on a STEP UP for these?

i usually listen to HARD rock and heavy metal and VERY heavy stuff along with screaming stuff when im on the train and stuff heh, so i think good sound on heavy guitars and stuff would be good.
i also want the pop/jazz stuff to sound good because of my varied tastes, but i think on the go i listen to rock stuf more.

kinda like...i like dream theater, pink floyd, progressive bhands which have heavy stuff and soft stuff, so yeah. but i guess on the go i listen to really heavy stuf too =-].

so what closef cans should i get?
oh and they should have quite good isolation so i dont need to turn up the volume to take out the noise outside.

thanks!

rob.

p.s. if uhave any recommendations just tell me, sometimes even if they dont really match my specs.

p.p.s. $ wise, more than KSC, but not as much as full sized cans like A900s +

btw, i am using a zen touch, if that helps. its kinda bassy-er than ipod and others. a bit muddy if i dont use an amp or eq i think...


how would the d66 eggos be? i love the look a lot...quite pricey...but damn.
but how would they stand? like durability? they look a lil fragile (?) and sony's cant last very long usually.... i want em to be durable!

any recommendations?
