I second the Etymotics! They are sensational. However, for home listening, I prefer Denon Music Maniac AH-D600. Just sensational clarity and presence for all music, and incredible craftsmanship in the construction. They list for $400 but I got them for $188 on eBay.

I like Etymotic for these. If you don't mind dropping another $100 you can have custom ear tips made. Sounds wonderful and quite comfortable.

Select model depending on budget. I think it was the SRH440 model that I experienced at a recent recording session, actually quite impressed with the sound compared to my more expensive Sennheisers. If you're not ever thinking of using the phones for mixing then these should be perfect, as they are designed for studio use. andy On 08/11/2015 21:50, WALSH STUART wrote: Researching headphones on the Internet is a bit of a nightmare! I just want some better headphones for creating duets: recording one part then playing it back and recording a second part while listening to the first part. I haven't got fancy or expensive recording equipment - just portable devices. I don't want anything too expensive! Any advice would be appreciated.
