Hey all,
I've been using the same pair of HD 439's for about 2 years now (first pair of headphones, only other pair I own is PC363D), and I've decided it's time for an upgrade. My budget is AUD$100-300. Could you guys please give me some suggestions as to what I should get? Preferably non-amp. I'll be using these on the move, so something more portable would be great (travel case not necessary, but lightweight would be awesome). Circumaural, because I really hate the feeling of on-ear headphones.
I love listening to rock, metal, post-hardcore kind of music (bands like blessthefall, A Day To Remember, Sum 41, Foo Fighters etc.), as well as electronic & classical. Strong bass would be great, but I certainly do not want to compromise on the treble, as I love that sparkly feeling.
Thoughts?
Cheers,
Magnetbrain
