Hi guys,

I'm looking for headphones for recording voiceovers (my own). At this moment I have AKG 240 Studio but they're semi-open so I'm afraid sound will bleed into the mic.

For a VO person recording his own voiceover, which one would you recommend, Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro 80h or Sony 7506 and why?

I found Beyerdynamic 770 more comfortable but they supposedly offer "only" 18dB isolation (as opposed to say 32dB by Sennheiser HD280 which I wanted to buy but after trying I find them a little too tight on my head and I'm afraid they would get uncomfortable if you work for an hour or so). Are the Beyerdynamic good for VO? (i.e. no bleeding at reasonable levels...)

Are B. 770's and Sony 7506 comparable in terms of isolation? How about soundwise?

Any kind of input would be greatly appreciated.

thanks in advance
