I am looking for a comfortable pair of headphones and have narrowed it down to these three... Does anyone know how these three compare in overall sound quality and comfort?? Also are the sony mdr-d22 somewhat obtrusive when worn?? Thank you..

PX 100 wins for sound quality and unobstrusiveness, while the D22 is probably the most comfortable, being an Eggo. I wouldn't suggest the PX 200, since it's neither as comfortable as the Eggo nor good-sounding.

Well since the d22s are closed I understand that the obtrusiveness is somewhat inevitable, but more importantly I just don't want to look like mickey mouse while wearing them. Also could you possibly explain to the me the differences in overall sound compared to the d22s and px100s? Also how do the d66s sound?? Thank you..

I've only heard the D66 but by all accounts there's a significant gap in sound quality between the D66 / D77 and all the lower Eggos. The 66 / 77 can stand up as head-fi cans with a straight face, the others really can't.

BTW, some people don't like how they look in Eggos. I think they look OK on me, but they certainly have the potential to look silly. The headband is very stealth so it kinda looks like you're wearing half an egg on each ear, there's no obvious headband to make people immediately recognise "oh yeah, it's a pair of headphones".
