What should I get?

Hi everybody. Im from portugal and have about 150 euros to spend on Headphones(I can spend more if its worthy).

The thing is here in Portugal there arent many brands available and so Im kinda limited to Sennheiser( not that its a bad thing right?).

The reason I want some is because I believe there are new sounds to be found :P and being a music lover I guess I never really listened to it properly( I use the Headphones that came with my classic Ipod :P).

So Im looking for a richer musical experience that I believe isnt provided by
the standart Ipod ones ? ( I never listened to music with any other set so I really dont know!! Will I notice differences?? What do you know?).

I came across the SENNHEISER HD 485, the 555, the 595
and the smaller Sennheiser px 100.

Im thinking about taking them everywhere but I wouldnt really mind to continue carrying the ipod ones around and buying some bulkier one to use at home if the sound quality justifies that.

What do you recommend?? What Im really looking is for a rich sound experience so will something in the lines of the Sennheiser px 100 provide that? Should I buy something like the 595? How does the sound of the px 100 compare to the 595? Whats the best value?


Sorry for the long text. Thank you.

Re: What should I get?

try ebay and choose the worlwide setting, you'll find plenty of merchants willing to ship to you.

other wise, try the Alessandro MS-1's

or try audiocubes.com. i've ordered a few headphones from them with no trouble.

don't be limited to Sennheiser!
