Hi...I am looking for a GOOD Sounding, comfortable & portable pair of headphone?

I currently have the Sennheiser PX100 and it's a good headphone but i am looking to upgrade to something much better...so what are my choices?

I don't care how much it costs.

Things I need are the following:

Great Sound
Comfortable
Portable (if possible)

Thank You All.

NOTE: I Do NoT Want Any Noise cancellation headphones!!!

Well the beyer dt-231 galactic is an excellent choice,but if that sounds rather biased coming from me then the audio technica earsuit 7 is a nice choice,or you could always stick with senn and try the e150 evolution which are rather smashing or the 212 pro if you like bass
All these i reckon are a top choice

I've been using my A900 exclusively, both at home and on the go for the past 6 months now. If you don't mind the size, it is a great all purpose phone. I usually have it hanging around my neck when I'm on the go and not using it.

Another vote for the Audio Technica ES-7.

Are the Audio Technica ES-7 better than the Sennheiser PX100?

& is the ES-7 the best portable cans Audio Technica carries in your opinion?

Thank You.

ESW9 are said to be better than ES7s - but they're 3x the cost

Okay here is a review of the ES-7...the reviewer wasn't overly impressed by these.

I'm sorry, I haven't got a clue.: Audio-Technica ATH-ES7

You know, in all honesty, if you say price is irrelevant, than you might as well look at Edition 9. For portable use its one of the best around...or you can get custom IEMs (UE10, UE11, ES2, ACT2), which is also a great idea for use on the go (great isolation, small size/comfort, very clear sound). If a 1500 dollar price tag is troublesome, than the considerations mentioned by people above may be worth talking about.

The Audio Technica ATH-ESW9 has some wood finish. I am not a fan of wood headphones at all.

Does this headphone have another model that replaces any wood in it?

They are worth the cash,IMHO over the ES7's,and fill all of his requirements and then some,as well they do it with class and style.

Minus his lack of liking the wood on em.
