    I've been looking for a new set of head-phones, but the problem I've encountered is that all the major brands (Sony aside), have terrible websites that are almost designed as if they don't want you to purchase them.

    Lucky the HeadRoom exists.

    I'm torn between the Grado SR 60i and the Sennheiser HD 448. The Grado is open backed, so has sound leakage and the level of comfort varies. But, its price is fantastic for what you end up getting. The Sennheiser is slightly more expensive, it often has complaints about the bass levels. Also, due to most of the music I listen to being Indie and poorly recorded, an overly powerful set will show the flaws in the recording. Plus, I'm not a fan of sweaty ears.
