I NEED HEADPHONES....NOW

My wife is not feeling very "audio friendly" lately especially at night. When I come home at night, I really look forward to hear Dianne Reeves and can't get into it the way I like. The only compromise is headsets. I'm looking for a pair for about $200.00 - $300.00 street price. I listen to Vocal Jazz, acoustic and bump and grind R&B on occasion.

Thanks for any help.

Everyone will probably recommend the Grado line, however i would go with Stax,(els) considering your music preference. Everybody agree?

Hi Martice; I can strongly recommend the Sennheiser 580s or 600s. Both are very smooth, relaxing and comfortable for long term listening. The 600s are more detailed than the 580s and are my preference. Both should be available within your budget. Cheers. Craig.

I didnt know you could get Stax headphones in that price range. The Sennheiser 600's Craig recommends are fine and are selling in the low $300's, but there was an Audiogon classified in the last day or two at $275. The Grado SR 225's and SR125's (only about $150) are well within your budget and very good.
