I've been through a lot of headphones trying to find what I am looking for. I love my Grado SR125 'phones. They are not cheap (about £200) but I can really hear the difference. The clarity and sound-separation is incredible. I am not rolling in cash, but the extra was worth it to me as I do play and listen through them a lot.
Now something I wasn't expecting is how much I enjoy open-backed headphones (which these Grados are). They feel "lighter" on your head and ears, and you hear a lot of ambient sound too, which I think would be a big advantage as a church player. Unless you have well thought out ambient sound mics, IEM's can make you feel a bit isolated, which is a big reason I don't like them.
Just my experience anyway.
