joshb's Full Review: Beyerdynamic DT 250-80 Professional Headphones
My Grado SR60s sounded great, but they bugged everyone around me. They're designed that way; they leak sound. So my quest was for closed headphones that sounded as good as my Grados, for under $200. These Beyers are it.

Very good sound, though a little muddier than the Grados. The headband seems flimsy; I think it will fall apart eventually. They're also rather bulky, and they don't fold up at all, so they claim more space than they deserve when they're packed.

They're 80-ohm 'phones, so your portable CD player can probably drive them, but they sound better with a headphone amp.

I imagine they'd be excellent for DJs. They eliminate outside sound very well, and they're easy to wear on just one ear.
