Greetings! What a great forum you have (directed here from AVForums)
I need some headphones for general use for mostly listening to music & occassional movie - source would mainly be a Denon AV receiver but also could be a PDA (Ipaq) or laptop when stuck in a hotel room etc
My budget is £80
There is nowhere near where I live to try out the 'phones so I can't listen to them & will be buying blind which I know isnt ideal
I like rock music Floyd Who Purple Yes & more recent stuff like Porcupine Tree Oceansize etc
I used to have some Senns which lasted years so would be keen to stick with that brand but would consider others (?)
Based on reviews & views here I have seen within budget the HD555 & HD25-SP - 2 different type of 'phones (over ear and on ear)
Which would be most appropriate for my big head! (7 and 3/8 hat size
) I also wear glasses which can be an issue
Your expert advice would be much appeciated ... Paul
