I'm getting ready to invest soon in a better set of headphones for monitori=
ng my indoor and outdoor recording sessions.  I'm using a Sony PCM-M10, som=
etimes with internal mics and sometimes with PIP external microphones.

Two headphone models are within my budget and on my short list:

AKG K240 MK II - semi-closed.
AKG K271 MK II - closed.

The K271's cost slightly more, but other than the earpiece design they have=
 very similar specifications.

Looking for opinions one way or the other.

Thanks!!!
