I think HD280pro has weak bass, but sounds ok otherwise. HD580 was very good for classical music because it could produce those bright sound very clearly without any added distortion. But I couldn't wear it for more than 2 hrs with my glasses. Among these I love SONY (about $110 on ebay) the best, because it is very comfortable to wear even with my glasses, and sounds better than 280. Also it was less harsh when you listen to pops and rocks. So, unless you are listening to a lot of Jazz and Classicals, consider MDR-CD780 too.
just my 2 cents
I also wear glasses, and I know how painful headphones + glasses can be.
I have this HD555 and I can wear it very confortably with my glasses on.
