I've enjoyed almost every studio monitor setup I've heard for music listening, particularly Tannoys. The HD280 soesn't even begin to approximate that sort of sound.

DT150 is a better studio monitor imo.

I like them for studio purposes. I don't like them for listening to music. They are not bad, but they are not great either. Better cans can be had in that price range(IMO).

They were my first "expensive" headphones and I thought they were amazing. I was really happy with them until I upgraded. To the average consumer these are great for anyone looking for high quality phones. Great for the price.
