I would suggest looking at the AKG K240 Studios. Back in 2010 I was a freshman in college and asked a similar question: I wanted a $100-200 set of good cans. I hadn't picked a major at the time, but I have since gone into Applied...

I got the K240 Studio and I love them! I've listened for hundreds of hours to different music and devices, and I discovered a few things:   -My PC's sound card (Realtek HD something or other) is actually pretty good. The K77's...

I'm fairly new to the headphone world, but I think my K240 studios have a neutral sound. I've had them for almost two years, and I use them almost every day (audio engineering student). If there is a bump around 200Hz, it doesn't...

I know I'm bumping an older thread, but I have a pair of K77s. They have balanced overall frequency response to my ears, although the highs are a little disappointing. Bass is better (not thumping or cheesy) than the K110's I compared...

I'm a college student and classical music lover in need of some peace and quiet. I'm looking to spend between $100 and $200 for a decent set of headphones. I have a few preferences: Noise Isolation Would rather not buy an amp...
