Any suggestions on road recording/monitoring?
I pack a little Altec Lansing Orbit speaker and while not bad for short auditions and such, I'm always somewhat horrified when I play back the road stuff on my home system. Pops clicks rough edits. U name it. Ah, the quest for good road recording solution never ends

| A good ol' pair of Sony 7506s (or whatever you use at home). Thatll give you consistency. |

Always mindful of traveling light, how compact are those?

| Probably just as compact as those speakers. They fold up nicely and come with a great little carrying bag. |

Sennheiser PX100's or Koss PortaPros... both sound amazingly good and fold up very small.

Tough call. I found a great deal on the Sony's and pulled the trigger, but the other two look more compact, which is key. My problem really is playback monitoring. Trying to get a true reflection of what U
I recorded

| While I can't speak to their comparison to a lot of the high end headphones that many people use, I have used (and beat the heck out of) a pair of the 7506s for the past three years, and they've never let me down. I know a lot of people use them (probably because they sound good and are CHEAP). I know there are better headphones, but for the money, these have been my pick. |
