Closed Headphones for studio - sub £30

Hi,

I am looking to buy some closed back headphones for use with my studio pc (sequencing/recording).

My original budget was £20 so was looking at Seinnheiser HD201/202/205 - ami right in thinking the 205 would be the better choice for studio work? - but i was really wondering what stretching to £30 buys. Anything to gain from going up a tenner?

What would you recommend?

i took the plunge and went for Goldring DR150 from Play.com for £30 delivered.

Surely bargain of the century!
