I can also mention what I'm using to give a potential buyer a couple of mor=
e options.
I'm very satisfied with my headphones. They are all closed back.
At home I'm using AKG K271 Studio and I love them in all ways.
In the field I wanted closed back but as small as possible but still coveri=
ng my ears and I also wanted to be able to fold them.
I ended up buying Audio Technica ATH-M35 and I abuse them and wear them for=
hours without problem. The sound is neutral in my ears. http://www.audio-t=
echnica.com/cms/headphones/1e4946cab2f5e453/index.html
I have actually bought another pair of the ATH-M35 as a spare or if a frien=
d join me in the field.
