if you're really keen on more music with outstanding production, listen to 'year zero' and 'the fragile' by nine inch nails. there's an australian artist called Gotye whose album 'like drawing blood' is very well produced...
here are some others...
bjork - homogenic
radiohead - in rainbows (produced by english producer and all round sound wizz Nigel Godrich...all his work is immaculate)
if you'd like something heavier... 10 000 days by TOOL, or watershed by OPETH.
and if you're feeling REALLY adventurous, find "Delirium Cordia" by Fantomas... it's like a medically themed horror movie, but as one 70 minute track of weirdness... sonically fascinating! this description sounds lame... but don't dismiss this release simply due to my inability to describe it's awesomeness to you!
phew! i gots more if you needs it!

Hi spike, thanks for the tips,
TOOL and Björk I had already mentioned, but forgot about Radiohead, cheers.
Gotye... I've heard that name before... probably on JJJ, will search for it.
Fantomas, I went to their concert, brilliant but haven't forked out for the album yet!
(You may have made the connection with my handle? MrB?)
Always open to more suggestions.
Also have Sennheiser 'phones, seem to be low on Bass, but otherwise crisp and razor sharp... still looking for perfection though.
Couple of others that I just remembered; some of the later Faith No More tracks are great thru headphones, also the last two MrBungle albums and a couple of Tomahawk tracks.
And one I almost forgot, The Cars, haven't heard anything of theirs for some time, was a fan years ago, will have to rediscover them.
