Id like to get a good quality set of headphonse for my home studio to use when rest of family is looking for peace and quiet.

I have cheaper sets of open air but always thought they lacked something....maybe the dynamic range im used to from speakers.

I was thinkin closed ear would give better performance but thats just a guess.

I know they can get expensive but am only looking for the $150 price range.

Mostly this is for my own recording of guitar over backing and often I would want to play while listenin on the headphones.

Any of your thoughts would be appreciated.

I have two sets of Sony's. I use MDR 7506 for listening to high frequencies, kit cymbles etc. MDR V700 for checking out the entire mix. Both are very true and accurate. The MDRV700 set has an extended range on the low end.
