Thanks for the responses. I might just order both and return the one I don't like.
Seems like the Sennheiser HD 558 would suite my needs better, but the open ear/sound leaking definitely concerns me... especially if I use them at work.

Do a google search for the nearest Best Buy with a Magnolia Center. They should probably have both of these two headphones on display. You'll get a somewhat false sense of sound, given that you'll be using their input/DAC/amp/etc, but you should get enough of an idea that lets you know you like one or the other. And then, if you get it home and realize your equipment is subpar, you can try the swap (or upgrade with more of their components, since you've already taken the first step down a slippery slope that you can't climb back up).
