sennheiser pxc250 earphones. sound very decent (still not as good as my hd600’s) and noise-cancelling which makes my PC sound almost as quiet as my iMac, and my iMac inaudible. http://www.sennheiser.co.uk/products.jsp?id=04924 oh, and the guy at the shop dissed how meridian kit was always on backorder… 😎
