I'm looking for some closed back headphones (for use in a shared office- so I don't want them to leak sound) which will be driven from either a laptop/desktop soundcard, or an ipod.

I listen to a large range of music (who doesn't) so can't give a steer as to what genre they're for. It is important that they are comfortable as they will be work for extended periods of time. Oh and I wear glasses.

I have done some reading and the Creative Aurvana Live headphones got some very good reviews and were said to be the best in their price range - £53.03 on Amazon.
Are there any others which you ("you" being you all as a (far wiser than me) collective) recommend for ~£50.

I think I would rather buy new as I don't want to buy any off ebay.

Thanks in advance

edit:
That said about ebay, I have seen some Sennheiser HD 215s which are new with damaged packaging. How do these compare to the Creatives?

It'll be hard finding something better than the Creative Aurvana in that price range.

The Aurvana is actually a re-badged Denon D1001 which retailed at £100, so the Creative is a good buy at £50.
