Greetings, first time poster here.
I was a huge fan of my Sennheiser 555s, and now I'm head over heels with my 598s. Unfortunately, my office has become increasingly noisy and my beloved 598s are losing the battle against this racket.
Can anyone recommend a pair of headphones that offer similar character and sound quality as these models, but with superior noise isolation, preferably for less than $200? I'm not opposed to some change in character, mind you, such as stronger bass presence, but these models are my starting point from which I know I am satisfied. From what I've come to understand, one must sacrifice sound quality for isolation when moving from open to closed. With that in mind, I was hoping an experienced community such as this could help me mitigate this loss : )
Thanks.
