Indeed the PX200 II is a fine choice. Its only weak point is its rather limited isolation: impressive for its size but not the best which is also an advantage for in case of an emergency you are not cut off from the outside world.

That was a reason i guess i was considering the sennheiser hd555 since i still want to be able to hear some type of outside noise...wouldnt want some person cocking their gun behind me on the bus and not know it

hah. 
I wouldn't say the M50s are big, but for the gym? 
That's a big no no

The flip side to that is everyone will be able to hear what you are listening too. Ofcourse if you have good taste in music I wouldnt consider that to be particularly harmful =)

Yea, the ATH-M50s would be great if you aren't gonna use them for the gym, but otherwise, px200ii DD

To the OP: Have you decided what headphones to get yet?

 

[KarimyBaby]

I've decided to give the PX200 a try...will order them today

If you get the little Sennheiser, it can sound harsh in the beginning. After some burn in time it will sound smoother. At least that is my experience...

 

[MrBapti]

^hey mine too

 

[KarimyBaby]

How is the bass on them?

 

[Deep Funk]

The low end on the PX200 II is tight, smooth and present. Do not expect to be wowed since the PX200 II presents the music in a more balanced way so the bass slam will not knock you out.
