Currently considering Audio Technica ATH M50, if there is others that are good, 

what headphone do you guys prefer with good audio quality, (for trance, electric musics)

and extremely comfortable, at least able to use it for very long time of period (3hrs +)

Truthfully, ATH-M50's are the best at that price range.

Sennheiser HD 558. Good sound, extremely comfortable.

How about the HD380 Pro's??

Really uncomfortable. I'd recommend the Shure SRH440 with 840 pads instead, sounds better imo, and is a lot more comfortable.

 

OP: SRH440 with 840 pads are good closed headphones, but for open, the Sennheiser HD558 or 518 are great choices. or if you can find Pioneer SE-A1000, those are great too.

 

EDIT: my sentence was a little unclear.

I found my SRH440 to be too heavy and the ear pads weren't deep enough, so I took them back,but they sounded great. I would recommend the Sony MDR 7506.

Not allowed to post things to third party sites. The Classified section is fair game, afaik.

Reluctantly selling because I rarely use them. When I need a portable headphone I use my Momentums now because they're smaller.
