Another vote for AKGs. I've enjoyed every pair of AKGs I've heard so i'm not going to recommend a specific Model. They tend to be a very good value. Especially compared to Denon, my other favorite.

Any AKG that fits your preferences and budget should do well.

My only complaint with them is distribution. Its really hard to find AKGs in a Brick and Mortar store in Vancouver, Canada. Tom Lee Music has them but they are over priced with the K-271 mkII weighing in at $230 CAD.

Did that sound Fanboy-ish? I hope not. I jsut think they offer the best sound for the money and thats my 2cents
