I just purchased a Sony CDP 302 cd player and have the same problem (that is the neighbors can't appreciate a pair of Klipsches). I have had a pair of Sennhieser 420 headphones for 3 years now, and have enjoyed them a great deal. They also crank with the CD player. They retail for $90-100, but I got mine mail order from Stereo Corp (NYC) for 48. I beleive the price mail order is still about the same. It would be worth your time to audition these. And about Sony headphones...the only ones I have seen of late are of the type that you wear with your walkman. The Sony's MDRs that I have listened to tend to be tinny and lack in low end, probably because of the size of the mylar? drivers. But to each his own.
