Basically I haven't got a clue, I've read through the forums and looked at reviews but there are so many sets available that I'm just confused.

I'm after some closed headpones (My desktop is in my flats lounge so I don't want to annoy my flatmates) that basically do everything. I could strech to £150 as they are something I will be basically using all the time instead of speakers, for gaming, movies, music etc etc.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

I'm aware that asking for headphones to do everything is a bit daft, but aslong as they aren't awful I don't mind.

Oh and they must be comfy :P.
 
I think I've decided on some Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pros. Would going for the 80ohm version mean I wouldn't have to get myself an amp to drive them?

Also could you recommend some amps, I've seen inline ones for ipods and such and much larger ones, something simple would suffice if I chose to get one.
 
I'm quite keen on bass, not so much as to kill the rest of the music but I like it to be deep. What is it like on the Audo Technica A900's? And would I need an amp :p.
 
Hmm, can anyone recommend me a nice simple headphone amp? I don't need anything too complicated as it's only for my computer.
 
Ended up with some Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pros, more because I found them for a good price than anything.

I see what you mean about them and their bass. Luckily I like it, and as this is the first ever decent (as apposed to rubbish gaming headsets) set of headphones I have owned.... I'm quite a happy chappy.

Thankyou for the advice and such though, it was coming into this forum that made me decide to get a decent set of headphones in the firstplace.
