Anyways, as anyone can see Im new here. *blush*

So, Hi?

I have about 130 CAD to spend on some semi-decent cans this week. Any suggestions? I've looked at the senn 280, and grado 60. Id like to know in your honorable opinions which one is the nicer choice.

Welcome to Head-Case.

What sort of music do you listen to? What will you be plugging these headphones into? iPod, reciever, soundcard, etc...

I would put the Alessandro MS-1 and the AKG K81DJ on your short list as well for that price.

AAAAHHH NOOB ATTACK!!!

Just Kidding. Welcome! I'm going to have to recommend the AKG K81DJ as well.

For that budget, assuming you don't have a way to listen first, I'd buy a pair of allessandro MS1s.

Alright.

Im listening to pretty much anything made from 1700's-2000's XD. Except for rap and RB and hip-hop o_O;.

Im plugging these in a Creative X-fi

Sounds like the Alessandro's would be a good match in that case, though I can't say that I have any experience with them straight out of a X-fi...
