Basicly, I really hate people sneaking up on me and startling me while I am listening to music.
 
My Price Range is 100-200 dollars.
 
I'd prefer something with rich, but not overpowering, bass and a reasonable soundstage. Plus reasonable comfort and durability.
 
I was thinking maybe the Sennheiser 558, but if anyone has any better suggestions, I have open ears.

In this price range you could also check out the HD598.  It's not that much more expensive.  The difference between the 558/598 is far more than the difference between the 555/595.
