Hi everyone, I want to buy a pair of headphones wich I would use with my iPod and PC.
 
The following are the headphones that I found in my local store:
 
Sony:
MDR570LPB
MDR570LPL
MDR-V500DJ
MDRX200
MDRZX300R
MDRZ500W
 
Philips:
SHP2700
SBCHP400
 
Sennheiser:
HD 205 II
HD 218
HD 218 I
HD 220
HD 228W
HD 428
HD 448
HD 515
 
So the question is, which headphone would you suggest me to buy, and why?
 
I mainly listen to classical and metal music, and I would like to buy the headphone with the best sound quality (and maybe comfort) of those listed :).

I'm not a Sony fan, the Philips SHP-2700 would be worth it for $20
I've never used Sennheiser, but i would not mind the HD-448 or HD-515.
You could still mail order some Superlux.

Why not buy online?

Well, I needed to buy a pair of headphones from that local store because tomorrow I'll leave for holidays, so I wouldn't had a chance to wait for the shipping time, if I decided to buy online.
 
However, after having read some reviews here and there, it seems that the Superlux HD-668B are a giant killer:

Do you think the HD-668B headphones could be better than the ones I listed in my first post? I could buy them for 30 € (43.2 $) from an online shop.
 
If yes, I could wait and buy them as soon as I come back home :).
