Has anyone tried both of these and can compare them? I think the LP2 are over the ear, so are they more comfortable for long usage?

V-Moda LP2 or M-80?
post #2 of 7

The LP2 is great for DnB, dubstep, and Electronic genres. The M-80 is a great all-rounder can for genres such as rock, metal, pop, alternative,etc.
Also, yes, the LP2 is more comfortable due to it being over-ear, although I find my M-80's plenty comfortable.
I have a large head so I'm worried using on ear headphones would cause fatigue after long periods (8+ hours)
I don't really listen to dubstep, but would the LP2 be better for hiphop music? How does the M-80 compare to Shure SE535?

Oh, and throw in the M-50 for comparison's sake as well. :)

LP2 doesn't fit fully around my ears so for me it's not quite circumaural/over the ear.
