Hi, I just want to say up front how much I appreciate all the help and information available here. You guys are really something else!
I've been checking this site out consistently over the last couple years whenever I've been in need of new headphones. Fortunately I've been passed over by the wallet-gremlin and have only gone through a few relatively inexpensive phones.
Anyway, I live in a tiny Manhattan apartment and currently use HD 280 Pros while I work from home all day (they block the early morning garbage men out, I can't complain!). My fiance (http://www.lindseymuir.com/) however is just getting the ball rolling with her singing career in jazz and needs a pair of headphones. She'll be using them to listen to herself singing for the purpose of learning new material. She's really tiny and my HD 280 Pros look rediculous on her.
Ideally she'll record herself singing into a minidisc player, then play it back while reading sheet music to learn the songs. Possibly even use it on the bus/subway while moving around the city. Since this isn't an intense application there's no need to spend lots of money, but I think quality is still important otherwise I wouldn't be here asking for help. So any suggestions would be great, and if she can get more than one use out of them that would be an added bonus!
Thanks guys, she'll really appreciate it!!
