Hey guys, 
I'm new and was looking for something relatively portable that I would be running out of Samsung P2...
The P2 is a bit old, but it sounds pretty good so yea...
In the past I had some Bose OE's, Phiaton MS 400's and some Beat Mixr's...
loved the Phiatons until the wire broke and the Mixr's were okay, but I returned them in the end because well I felt I could do so much better for the money
Essentially I have 250 to spend on some portable headphones that are good for hip hop and rap, something close to MS 400's...
I like the idea of Ultrasones but I'm not sure if I can run them with my P2, and was leaving the Denon as my fallback..
Any ideas?

I own Ultrasone hfi2400 and really love it.
They have 72ohm and still driven well from my portables,
so 780 with 35ohm should be fine.
But I doubt I would wear them outside,
they´re pretty huge.
I would go for hfi 15G* or 450 / audio technica ath-anc7b
AKG Q460 or480?
 
(*looking cheap, but sounds really good)

Thanks for the reccomendations
just wondering, would you know how big they are compared to the Phiaton MS 400?
since the akg's seem smaller do they still have a lot of isolation?

no idea reg. isolation.
closed and bigger cans will seal better of course.
but I wouldn´t wear any of them outside

Completely random but I just went out and bought the Pioneer HDJ-2000's
they're a little big, but when i listened to them in store they sounded great for rap and hip hop, bit of grainy highs, but since i found them for $200 I thought it was worth it...
breaking them in now and they seem to be doin okay... Can drive them really easily off my P2
