I am still looking for the perfect headphones, but I have tried the
HD280 pro and while they sound good, they have high clamping pressure
and that damn curly cord is a real pain in the **** so I sent them back.  

I am currently trying to find out if the Audio Technica M40FS, AKG 271
or AKG K55 (recommended by someone here when I searched the archive)
are suitable.

I fancied the Beyer DT770 until I found out they had curly cords as
well (and the latest versions are not closed).

I anyone has any suggestions I would also appreciate them - where I
live it is impossible to find any to try so I have to use mail order
and hope.

Keith.
