I own a pair of these and they are brilliant.
Huge sound for such a small set of cans, and very robust, very well built, easy to run and block out unwanted sounds..
I can't comment on your ones, here is reviews on the 25's
enjoy... Sennheiser HD 25-1 II Reviews

With regards to the earpiece on them, does it cover the whole ear? i.e does your ear rest inside the cup? if you know what i mean.

The HD 25 Mark 2 are not closed cans, they do not fully go around the out part of your ear..
The only cover the canal part, but still sound great..

Sorry, they are closed cans, but not around the ear closed..
You can't hear any external noise which is great..

Thanks: Gave 4, Got 14 | Re: Monster Beats by Dr. Dre High Definition Studio Headphones
i have the studio beats and they are stunning, i am a real headphone freak and have had all sorts from £50 up to top range senns at £350 , these are the ones i have enjoyed the most and keep on enjoying, they look great fit great over the ear and surround the ear, sound wonderfull, and block out most of the outside noise, i would recomend then 100%, when i brought mine i took my ipod classic in with me and listened to them through it( any good shop should let you do this ) that way you can listen to music you know, i dont think you will be dissapointed...hope this helps...steve

@ 24 P -
I think i will end up going for the HD25-1 to be honest as they do sound like they are very good. I just need a couple of last questions answered if possible,
1. How long roughly is the cable for the HD25's?
2. Is the sound quality superb for all types of music? as some headphones perform better with some music than others.
3. Am i right in saying that they work on all laptops/i-phone etc without any problems?
Thanks alot mate.
@ Steve -
Thanks for the reply. I really cant decide at the moment if i want to buy the Beats headphones or not as something is stopping me. One minute im close to buying them and then a minute later, i dont fancy buying them. They do look fantastic and from what ive read, they are meant to be really good. Ill have a think about which pair is best for me i think. Cheers.

The cable is short about 2 metres max, probably less, it is strong, made of steel, yes steel..
I have listened to all sorts of music, from classical to techno and they are great..
They have very good bass response and a very comfortable..
Easy to drive so the laptop should have nps running them.
I would seriously go and listen to them before buying as they might not be suited for your tastes..
Cans are a very personal thing..
