[QUOTE="Audio Bug, post: 126709, member: 2324"] Atjan, I would like to throw another option in the mix - Grado SR80i. I own a pair and they sound great. Cost: about R1k. From my experience, there is little difference in sound between open and closed HPs of similar quality. The main difference is that closed 'phones allow for silent and private listening, whereas open ones 'leak' quite a bit of sound. I prefer open HPs and find the closed ones can get hot and uncomfortable after a while. [/QUOTE]
