All of em suck, except for the Panasonic. Go get some Sony's. MDR-V900's are sweet.

Not according to reviews, unless all reviewers are wrong.

You should probably make a post at head-fi.org, since they are a headphone masters.

try Sennheiser HD-580s or 600s

I'm a big fan of old school headphones... you know, the 5 pounders that cover the entire side of your face and block out virtually all noise

you can get them on e-bay pretty cheap, though I found mine in my grandparent's basement

EDIT: but seriously, you should go to a hifi store if there is one near you and just demo a bunch and see which you like

I love my Sennheiser HD280 Pro's, they are the best headphones I've ever had!

I've got the Sennheiser HD280s and I agree, superb sound.

I dont know much about the specific models you ask about but as a general rule of thumb:

Sennheiser:
Sound: very good
Price: moderate to expensive
Grado:
Sound: good
Price: cheap to moderate

So, depending on your budget id recomend either Sennheisers or Grados. I have HD580 Sennheisers and they have been perfect for the past 3 years and are still the best, most comfortable pair of headphones i have ever had.
