Audio Technica E555 - Error in mag??

[admin_exported]

I'm looking for a set of portable headphones and was interested in the group test winners from the thread title but they don't seem to exist, is this a typo? the closest I can find in terms of looks and a similar name are the ATH-ES55.

Are these the ones that were reviewed and won the test?

If they are, I also want something to listen to the tv with late at night, will they be suitable for pairing up with my iphone and a bit of tv listening every now and then?

Cheers.

Just checked, and yes it was the ES55, not the E555. There'll be a correction in the next issue, but apologies for that confusion.

Thanks Andrew, do you know if these sort of headphones are any good for listening to the TV with and do you know if they leak much sound, can't seem to find any other reviews, interested in using them without bothering anyone around me.

I listened to the Bose on ear headphones today and was impressed but the review on here suggests they are awful.

I would think they'd be fine for TV listening, and being closed-back designs shouldn't have too much problem with outward sound leakage.
