Right, but the OP asked for Sennheiser, $110 or under, closed. That doesn't point to Sony or AKG or the HD25-1 II. Nothing at all against those headphones, just not what the OP is asking for. So, what about the less expensive closed Sennheisers... could even thrown in a Fiio amp and still be under budget?

If you like a dynamic sound, Sony mdr-7506 are a choice too. They are juicy, but lack midrange. Plus they go over your ears, in other words, are objectively very comfortable. Minus is that they have a coiled cord. (takes lots of space in your pocket or even from a backpack) I'm sorry OP for getting carried away, but the hd25s truly will last you a lifetime. I'd still give them a thorough ponder, even though they are slightly above your budget -K |
