Sennheiser and tubes are a good substitute for sleeping pills.
I'm kidding (sort of) I have Senn 600 - and Grado RS-1. I have tube amp with Senns (ASL MGhead) and RA-1 for Grado. I read all the hype about the Senns and they sound great for classical. I like the Grado for rock and jazz (actually Senns are good for jazz also). The Grado's are just more musical and toe tapping. They both have a place in my system depending on the music. I would miss either one if they were gone.
Oh, comfort... ummm the Senns are much more comfortable.
Don't even try the in ear canal phones - I have the Shure E3 and I'd rather stick an icepick in my ear.
