To begin I would like to apologize for not using the 'post here instead' page, but i have noticed after lurking that responses dont come too quickly, and I was hoping to get a pair by next wednesday so I can have them for states.
Alright, on to the real stuff. I am new to the art of audiophillia, and I am interested in purchasing my very first pair of nice headphones. My budget right now is up to or around $150, which from the information I have gathered can get me a decent pair. I will mainly be using these for around the house music, and they will be un-amped, but I swim competitively and I would prefer something that i cold use to help me get ready to swim. Because of this last reason I think that I would be better suited with a closed pair. problem is that i know nothing about brands and models. I mainly listen to techno/electronic, house, and dubstep, but being involved with choral music I enjoy almost anything.
I have been looking into this for the past couple of days, and so far the HPs that I have come up with are the HD595s and the ATH-M50S, but by no means do I intend to limit myself only to those. I have seen the M50 mod with the DT250 pads (with electric tape) so that is my current leader in this decision
Thanks to anyone who spends time to read through this, I appreciate any help you guys can give me. Again thanks, and im really looking forward to listening to some music.
