Answer 1

Take an example of the recorded media you use, i.e. c.d., cassette tape or whatever, to a reputable HiFi dealer and listen to it through different headsets.

Pay attention to comfort as well as the audio quality.

Although there are several other very good makes, I have used Senheiser with which I have been very satisfied.
