Go for the MS-1, it's a great first headphone and one you'll probable keep after you upgrade.

Buy something now, make a good choice but don't sweat it. There's lots of time to grow, earn money and buy nicer phones and setups later in life.

I still can't understand difference between alessandro MS1 and Grado sr80i? They seem absolutely same to me on the outside, and when I've read few reviews I can see, that they sound pretty much the same... And what about pads? Does alessandro MS1 have bowls or comfies?

And why nobody is offering hd555, I've had an opinion that they are good headphones in all kinds of music...
