Hello all,

 

I made this thread to hopefully get some specific suggestions on headphones that fit with my wishes.

 

I am looking for the following:

 

- Something that can be used for mixing purposes, but also for genuine listening purposes.

- I listen to Hiphop, R&B, Soul and Dance the most of the time.

- I do not want it to be too heavy on any of the frequencies, as I'd like to use it for mixing/producing purposes. However, seeing the genres a good solid bass would be nice

- Prefer a closed over-ear (!) headphone, but I heard a closed can get weary on the ears, correct? I do value comfort since I need to be able to wear it for multiple hours.

- Pref that the sound is good without an amp being necessary.

- Most likely I am going to plug it in the amp of my AR 4xa speakers, which is a Yamaha R300. Does this affect the quality much ?

- Price range: 100-130 with a max of 150 if that means a significant change in quality.

 

I've seen the M50's and the D1000's being mentioned a lot, but I can't seem to find the D1000's online.

Im open for ANY suggestions regarding this situation though, so please consider.

 

Thank you for checking my post, and hope that you can help me out!

Sincerely,
