So... I've been looking around at headphones (trying to decide what to plug into the back of my computer for games and music [everything from rock to Bach] sans headphone amp)...
I've thought about the Sennheiser 555, the 580, the 585, the 595... and I can't tell what the hell is going on. Are some of these older models? I know that I'd probably get a lot more out of these things with a headphone amp, but I'm looking forward. I'd like to use these things with a a/v system down the line, so I want some room to move up without needing new cans.
I want circumaural, so I'm not really looking at the Grados... although all this excitement about the HF-1 is making me reconsider slightly.
Any thoughts from the community?
