IMHO, the open candidates are much better long term solutions
but that all depends on wether you want to spend more $ on audio down the road... or you want this to be your final purchase



*sigh*

That's going to badly distort the sound of your expensive headphone, and possibly leave residue on it. Don't do that.

Another good sealed can to think about this the DT770-80. It's fairly large and silly looking (be prepared for "landing any planes today?" from co-workers) but sounds very good and has a really wonderful soundstage. Despite their looks, they are one of the most comfortable headphones you can buy, and are really light on the head. You can pick them up for between $150-$200 at a Guitar Center... price varies on how good you are at talking that particular employee down. I've gotten them for $150, twice.
