Hi there, admitted basshead here. I'm trying to find a good pair of full size, portable headphones that are bassy enough for enjoying electronic, rock, and atmospheric music that aren't too drowning. Here's the tricky part - I'm trying to keep it in a $50 - $70 range.
I've been looking into the best choices for weeks, and it's come down to these:
AKG K518LE (Really leaning towards these)
Sony XB-500
Philips O'Neill SHO9560 'The Stretch' (If that thread's review is accurate)
Sennheiser HD212
I'd love to hear about any others that I'm not aware of. I'm reluctant to get the SHO9560's since they seem so commercial and Skullcandy-esque, but I'd prefer to have a pair with a detachable (or replaceable) cable.
I'm hoping that I'm not the only one curious about this certain criteria of headphones. Thanks in advance.
