    I HIGHLY recommend a pair of Audio-Technica ATH-F5E's. These are hands do=
    wn
    the best headphones I've ever used. The sound is very insulated - great f=
    or
    the club or blocking out noise on a bus ride. Additionally, they fold up =
    for
    easy storage. These headphones are durable and have not experienced the
    shorting of sound that always tend to happen in every pair of Sony's I've
    owned. The only problem is that these are rather hard to find in the Stat=
    es.
    I picked these up in a shop in SF. I came back home raving about them and
    started looking online for a back up pair ...I believe they are a Japanes=
    e
    AT series. Anyway, i'm doing some research today...i'll e-mail you if I f=
    ind
    anything good. They were about $110 (which I think is pretty pricey) but
    have not had any problems since I bought them 3 years ago.=0D

    ps-there is another pair of Audio-Technica's that http://www.turntablelab
    com is selling that sounds great, but are just a little less compact. If =
    you
    can't find the f5e's go with those.=0D
