They are also a little "safer"
Not just because the shielding nominally protects you frying your brain with microwave energy (dubious) but because they have offset drivers which allow the outer ear to perform its amplifier function, and therefore listening levels are 3-4db lower for the same "loudness" compared with a conventional design.

Thanks - Jerry has sent me a nice looking pair of Sony phones to trial, looking forward to giving them a work-out ...

I enjoy my Beyerdynamic DTX-501p which were only £20, if you're willing to buy s/h you might be able to snag some Grado SR60. Aforementioned Superlux cans are very good value for money but do factor in replacement pads as the factory fitted ones are ghastly sweaty plastic things.
