noise reduction headphones? im looking to buy new headphones and i really don't know what i want. i know i want a sennheiser but i see that they sell audiophile headphones, noise cancelling headphones and idk which one to get. i want a sennheiser that produces the very best quality especially for music and movies and is comfortable too and i want to know which one is more suited for me. should i get the sennheiser HD-555 or the HD 280? or any other suggestions from sennheiser?
 
Audiophile headphones are phones for music lovers (Sennheiser, Bose etc). They are excellent sounding and pretty pricey. Noise Reduction headphones only mean that they block outside noise interference (subway, children, car horns, neighbors, etc.). The HD-555s are excellent sounding phones that give you a spacial concert hall type of sound but they are open ear phones. This means they don't block out noise.The HD-280s are also excellent sounding phones which are also noise reducing. They both range in price from $65-$75. Final thought: For home listening, video gaming, or computers with excellent sound cards i'd get the HD-555s. For deejaying, listening in noisy environments where attention is not required, or any niosy situation i'd get the HD-280s.Either way you can't go wrong!!!
