November 21, 200916 yr dad would like to get a pair of headphones. his office has gotten very noisy so he would like something closed but for him comfort is the top priority. sound quality doesnt even matter. this is what im thinking. Denon USA | AH-D1001 budget is roughly $150 shipped. nothing over. basically looking for a closed can that is super light weight and ultra comfortable. i dont know much about closed headphones so suggestions are welcome. will certainly not be using the headphones with an amp no matter how small as he is a desktop real estate freak. source will be a thinkpad laptop so a cable stock terminated to a mini plug would be a plus. also, he will be using it in his office so cant be full sized cans like hd650s. thanks, cj.
November 21, 200916 yr Audio Technica ATH-FC700A - Portable Headphones | HeadRoom Audio They have some Bstock ones for $29.
November 21, 200916 yr Panasonic RP HTX7-P1 The price is right ($26-$50). They sound very good for the price. They are light weight and comfortable.
November 22, 200916 yr Shure SRH840 -- they fold, they're probably not as lightweight as you'd like, and the band across the top can be uncomfortable if you're sensitive, but I've been living in mine and am very happy with them. They also isolate very well. Go to Northern Light & Sound for a potentially lower price (send them a request for quote) than what you see everywhere else on the net.
