Hi guys
 
can anyone recommend me a replacement / alternative for a Koss KSC75?
 
it needs to be;
> closed
> portable
> as AWESOME sounding as koss ksc75 !
 
it can't be;
> canalphone or earbuds
> gigantic headphones
> something that needs amping
> over $100
 
i love this thing so much but i just can't use it at work, or in public transport because of the leakage
 
i'm sure ppl around me wouldn't mind if i listen to the mainstream pop chart, but, unfortunately i don't, and i really don't appreciate the weird looks
 
any ideas?

Beyerdynamic 235?  Closed, light and cheap.  It will leak sound but less than the Koss.  I have not auditioned these yet but they look like they have promise.  I use IEMs even at home.

thanks rklages
 
still seems a bit big, and IMO embarrassingly ugly to wear for commuting to work >_<
 
however, i will keep the beyer 235 in mind for home use though
 
any other suggestions?
