They do seem to get fantastic reviews.
I've been looking at getting some closed back headphones but really want some that fold so I can use them for travel as well as at home.
If those Sennheisers folded I'd probably buy them.
I listened to loads while I was in the States, then came back and listened to a load here. My favourite so far were these Marshall Monitors
Which you'd think would be style over substance but they actually sound really good, unlike their cheaper offerings. They even get decent reviews from the audiophile set:

But they are pretty expensive, and now I've discovered these: Shure SRH440
Which also fold and get really good reviews. I used to have a set of Shure monitors and I really like their neutral sound, so I think I'd probably like them.
The problem is, there's nowhere I know of I can listen to them, and there's nowhere in the UK I've found to listen to the Monitors, so it's ages since I did. Hmm.
The Shure's are quite a bit cheaper.
Any other recommendations for decent closed back, foldable cans?
