I'm trying to decide between these two head phones:

Stanton DJ Pro 2000 - $65 (http://djdeals.com/stantonDJPRO2000.htm)

or

Grado SR80 - $95 (http://goodcans.com/HeadphoneStore/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=6)

The Stanton's are usually $95 as well so this is a really good deal. I've heard/read great things about the Grado's, but my main fear is that I will find them uncomfortable (the main complaint it seems). Are the Grado's worth $30 more? Has anyone had any experience with the Stantons?

I plan to use these at my computer, when I can't play my speakers loud. Not when I'm out.

Also, if it helps, I listen to house music. For those who don't know, it's a type of electronic dance music. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Don't know much about either pair, but I have the grado sr225's however and love them. Comfort for me is not an issue. If you do decide to go with the sr80's, buy the brand new updated version for the same price, the sr80i.
