I'm not sure what your musical preference is but different headphones suit different genres. A basshead headphone, for example, would suit genres such as EDM or Hip-Hop

I will prefer to have noise cancellation, but i understand that comes with price. 

I'm also looking one that have stereo/ 3D effect. Bass doesnt have to be too strong. 

I'm listening more to instrumental musics.

 

Thanks lot for your advices

Which one will be more suitable for instrumental musics. That when i listen to it, i can feel as if the piano is just beside me.

Do i need to have a strong base for it? Or it's related to the range of frequency?

 

Sorry that i am totally newb to the musics

Instrumental music ? Like bass guitars ? If so a neutral headphone with good bass extension is what you need.

Read from head-fi review, it got great reputations. 

But from amazon, it got great noise leakage. Will that its con? 
Is it possible to purchase in Ireland?

Neutral means no particular frequency is emphasised when music is played through headphones, the aim of a neutral headphone is to sound as real as possible. If you listen to violins, and in the recording theres a lot of them (violins), then you should also benefit from a big soundstage

Hi Xian,

 

I'm a classical musician and classical music is my favourite genre. For full sized headphones, I recommend open headphones instead of closed ones. They are more natural sounding and like what Parall3l said, neutral headphones is the way to go.
