Hi all,

My friend is looking for a set of portable headphones for her MP3 player. The criteria are:

Nothing that goes inside the ear (very small head!)
Fairly good isolation
Decent sound for orchestral/classical/piano pieces
Around $75

The PortaPros are ok, but there's little-to-no isolation. How are the PX100 for that?

Any other ideas? Phones not considered 'portable' but not too huge either could be considered.

The PX 100 are open cans with no isolation.

However, the PX 200 are the same size but are closed headphones with better isolation.

Personally I use the HD 25-1. These are outside your budget, but you may be geting close to the price of the similar (but cheaper) HD 25-SP.

Sorry, I don't know the street price in your country.
