I have tried 320 and 128 settings on MP3s for taking with me (on a Sony PDA) and no matter which headphones I use they sound about the same.
Is there no point in ripping at 320 if you are going to try to squeeze the tunes through sub $100 headphones?
I am using Sony MDR-EX51LP Fontopia Headphones and Sennheiser PX100s - both supposedly pretty good for under $100 headphones. I can't see spending $200 or more on headphones that go outside and may get busted.
I like the fantopias better because they block out outside noise and they are smaller, but the Sennheisers are probably better inside.
edit--
Headphones may be the bottleneck of maybe it is my ears. I should compare them on my home system, duh!
