But of course you are right, the D66 is the best sounding. Except... except... perhaps... perhaps the D77? We shall see........

BTW my KSC-35's and PortPros still get thier fair share of use because they are better suited to life in a pocket then the Sony eggos. And on occasion I break out the Senn MX500's when I don't want to draw attention to me listening to music.

Each has thier place in my backpack!

If the criteria for portable is the non-full sized phones, my vote is for Grado SR-40

Because of the comfort of the senn. also The 580s sound great so I would say the senn. The grados don't impress me much and are terrible with the comfort and 2 thick long cords.

hmm i like the koss ksc-50 as truly portable headphones, and they're a steal at $20. too bad they hurt horribly after a half hour of use. if comfort gets to be an issue i like the sony w.ear headphones more, even if they don't sound as crisp.

One that I haven't heard but want - Ety 4p (portable meaning that amp is optional)

Portable "Great sound for the masses" Sennheiser px100,200

Portable "Why is this only sold in Japan?" Sony Eggo dl66
