Audio-Technica M50x for everything except longevity. Shure SRH 1540 for everything but price. The specifications of the two are nearly identical, but the price of SRH 1540 is more than three times of the M50x. In terms of build and luxury the M50x does not even come close to the SRH 1540. I have both but if I use either it is the Shure.
That said, the winner has to be the Audeze EL-8 Closed back version. No doubt there at all. Far more modern technology, including some of Audeze's own creations, like the Fluxor magnets array, the hair-thin diaphragm and all that. And, even if we don't let technology come between our music and our enjoyment of the music, the Audeze EL-8 is by far the best set of closed backs I have used.
It is important to remember that I am no audiophile neither am I overawed by high technology most of which in any case I don't understand. I like to listen to my music and I know what is good for me. That is all.
