Isn't the DT931 over my budget? I saw another post in the forum saying that it's > $300

How do you guys find the comfort level of the Grados, specifically the SR-60 or 80? I'm gonna wear for probably 2-3 hrs at one go (watching movies) and I've got a big head.

If I'm gonna plug the headphone to a Home Theatre AV receiver, does it still need an additional amp? If my receiver can drive two floor standing speakers, it should be able to drive a headphone right?

Acutally it will be more for movies and television than music, but anyways I listen to mostly classical, instrumental music. For vocals I prefer unplugged type or pop ballads. No rock music for me.

Why do I need to buy an amp? Can't my regular home theatre amp do the job if I plug the headphone in?

Help, need some expert advice! I'm going to buy a pair of headphones mainly for watching movies and some listening to music at night. I guess my priorities are:

1. Sound quality

2. Comfort (can wear for 3-4 hrs)

Budget $150 - $200.

thanks in advance!
