As mentioned before the only real knock I had on them was the size that seems to make them uncomfortable after 2 hours. That is also another thing i'd look to consider, the size of the headphone vs how long you listen. For me I can go upwards of 7 hours listening to music and having heay headphones really takes away from the experience.
I'm mostly going to be using them for personal recording and listening to music in my room, so it shouldn't be too big a deal, but definitely something to consider. I'm curious though, how do you think they compare to the HD 255s?
