So this is my first post here. So, I've done some research and I was wondering which headphones I should get. I'm in between the Shure SRH840, Audio-Technica ATH-A700, ATH-A900, ATH M50s, AKG k272HD, AKG K701, Sony Mdr-v6, Sennheiser HD-595, or Sennheiser HD280. I can't decide so I was hoping you guys with your immense wisdom could help me out. I mainly listen to Trance, techno, alternative, some hip-hop, some pop, and some rock. I'm planning on using them without an amp since I don't want multiple things in my pockets. I also need good sound isolation too since I'm going to be using them at school and on the bus so I don't want sound to leak in or out. I'm going to be using them with my iPod touch as well with some pretty...lowly encoded mp3's (yeah, I know, what am I doing on here? haha) mostly 128, 256, 320 kbps. 3/4ths are at least 256 kbps though. I'm looking for a set that will let my music come alive. So, any or your help is appreciated. And of course outside suggestions are welcome as well. My budget is anything up to $300 although I'd prefer something around $250. Thank you for your help!
