Headphones for use with Squeezebox Radio


Looking for input on headphones that work well with Squeezebox Radio.

I'm looking for very good overall performers for all kinds of music with the Squeezebox Radio.

This is used in a bedroom, often at night prior to going to sleep, so comfort is desired also.

I like the build quality and fit design of the B&Ws. Haven't heard them enough to comment on the sound, but I suspect they are contenders.

There are soooooo many head and ear phones out there these days to choose from......
B&w build quality for the P5 was top notch and my favorite part of my experience .

I noticed in another post that you are experienced with Ohm speakers. Someone is selling the 3xo here and they are somewhat near me. Do you have any insight into those?

I currently am using Snell Type Q monitors and would like more bass without sacrificing the snell's level of detail.

Thanks
3XO is an older model with somewhat higher efficiency than most OHM Walshes.

With a 80X+ high current SS amp or better, bass extension should be very good in the price range these typically go for used, near full range class, better than most any monitor type speaker.

Overall sound refinement may not be quite up to snuff with the better modern speaker designs, including OHMs, but 3XO should offer good value overall used and a different kind of sound from most box designs that most either take to for good or not.
Mapman,

I've had my Shure SRH940s for 2 weeks now and am really liking them. What got me started was while waiting for my Centrance DACmini I dove into the various headfi forums and someone had the tenacity to compare the $300 Shures to the $1500 Sennhieser HD800s They were almost the Senns equal and that was good enough for me to try them.

At first I didn't know if they were too analytical but now that I have the DACmini, I'm keeping them. They have a beautiful midrange and airy, extended highs with tons of detail that don't distract. The bass is there in pitch and definition but a mite lacking in body and tone but the adjustment period has been easy for me. Now my main rig sounds a bit congested but I know its an illusion that occurs from extended listening from the headphones.

Give them a try: you might like them. There is over 114 pages of posts about them over at head-fi.org: quite the controversy.
Yes, the Shure's continue to be an option I might consider as a step-up from the Klipsch down the road if I decide to make a bigger investment in this.
