I'm going to flip neil"s favorite and inject the ER-4P/S.

My best ever:

K1000 By far. Makes me smile every day.
ER-4P/S
HD650/Zu?XLR

This is only the ones I still have - in order of sound only.

I can't live without the first 2, but wouldn't want to part with any in the top 9-10.

1) Shure E500PTH (SE530) - probably a tie with HD600, one has to be number 2 though

2) Sennheiser HD600 w/650 cable - tied with E500PTH for enjoyment, but better soundstage, leaks too much sound when I want to blast!
3) Ultrasone HFI700 DVD - good imaging with movies and live music
4) Denon AH-C700 - very close to the Ultrasone but without the soundstage
5) Beyerdynamic DT231 - they seem to be the best under $100 phones
6) iGrado - tied with PX100, faster bass, brighter highs but harsh at times.
7) Sennheiser PX100 (PMX100) - highs not as good as the DT231, but bass is, highs not harsh
8) Etymotic ER6i - good detail, needs bass and the right amp fixes that, small enough to sleep in comfortably.
9) Bose Quiet Comfort QC2 - sometimes we need quiet without in the ear phones, more detail than triport OE.

10) Bose triport OE - a little bass heavy, smooth sound, lacks detail but fun/okay for non-critical listening.
11) Sennheiser CX300 - nice highs and lows but poor detail - too cheap to sell (not worth the time)
12) Ultrasone iCans - will be for sale now

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The SE310 and E4c and Super.fi 5 pro that I've sold would rank right after
#5 and better than #7 - somewhere between the two. The Bose IE would
be better than #12, the E2c would be better than #11
