What headphones?

I currently have some Etymotic E6i's for using with my iPod when out and about.

I'm now looking for some headphones to use with my future amp. I have seen wireless headphones etc. Just wondering what you guys think is best.

Not looking to spend more than £70 really.

Has anyone used Sennheiser HD555's?

And what's the difference between open and cosed cup headphones?

Will you be travelling with the headphones, i.e: bus etc?

Open headphones let sound out to your surroundings, but are genearlly better for the money, and provide a more natural sound. Closed do not let any sound out, and are more expensive for the same quality.

Nope, just for home use.

My personal favourites are the AKG K240 studio version.

If you want high quaility sound wireless 'phones will disappoint you. At your price bracket I'd recommend either Grado SR60, great sound but rather uncomfortable or a set of Sennheisers.
