For a more complete comparison you may want to include the Ultrasone brand of headphones as well.

Ultrasone PRO 750's or PRO 900's should be included in Producing.
Ultrasone DJ1's and/or DJ1 PRO's should be included in DJ Headphones.

will do, ill have to check prices to make sure ive covereed a decent rang as well.

Im thinking testing them through a laptop and also through an ipod,

not sure if i should use a headphone amp or a better mp3 player like a cowon. perhaps at the end ill suggest getting an amp or better DAP

some of these headphones sound totally different when driven with a proper amp apparently.

Imo, a good pair of DJing headphones should not require an amp. It's yet another piece of gear you have to carry around.
