Headphones for use with Squeezebox Radio


Looking for input on headphones that work well with Squeezebox Radio.

I'm looking for very good overall performers for all kinds of music with the Squeezebox Radio.

This is used in a bedroom, often at night prior to going to sleep, so comfort is desired also.

I am waiting for my friend to give me her Klipsch S4's. I usually don't like in ear cans because they are uncomfortable, but these have had numerous good reviews for the last couple of years. If you get them, post a review!!!

I also heard the B&W P5's at the Apple store and found them also to be uninspiring. I'm sure it had to do with the iphone as source and the store noise, but I still felt that you could spend less money and get the same quality from Grado and Sennheiser. They were detail and warm but seemed veiled and restrained.

Look into a new old stock of AKG 701's; they look great, are reviewed as a "reference" headphone and they can be had in the $200's.

Good Luck!
B&w build quality for the P5 was top notch and my favorite part of my experience .

I noticed in another post that you are experienced with Ohm speakers. Someone is selling the 3xo here and they are somewhat near me. Do you have any insight into those?

I currently am using Snell Type Q monitors and would like more bass without sacrificing the snell's level of detail.

Thanks
