I have been looking for a new pair of headphones to take on the train.  I am currently using Etymotic ER6i and they performed really well but after about 8 years of service, they are starting to fall apart.  I also have a pair of Grado SR-80i, which I use at home but they are not suited for commuting at all, since they are completely open.  That being said, I am looking for a pair of closed headphones with good sound isolation, that I can take on the train and that would last me a few years.  So far my research has lead me to these models:
  1. Sennheiser Amperior ~ around $200
  2. Sennheiser HD380 ~ around $150
  3. Sony MDR 7506~ around $90
  4. beyerdynamic dt 1350-80 ~ around $200
 
Are there any other ones that I am missing?   Price-wise I would like to stay around $200ish.
 
thanks for your help.

Thank you, now I have to do some thinking... between the Amperiors or HD380s.  I was really leaning toward the HD380s; they are 139.99 with free Shipping on Amazon...
