Hey, I am fairly new to this site, and I am just looking for some great reviews from you audiophiles!
I am looking for over the ear headphones. The type of music I listen to is 95% EDM. Mostly progressive house, electro, tech house and lots of vocal/uplifting trance. My budget is $250 but I am willing to go $300 if the value is worth it. For the past couple days, I have been looking at brands like Ultrasone, Sennheiser, and Beyer.
I don't plan on using an amp, and most of my listening will be done at home or on the road/travel. I was thinking of going with a closed headphone as opposed to open just for the noise isolation (correct me if I'm wrong). This isn't a huge concern to me but it would be nice. It would also be nice to get a bit of stylish headphones (I like the wood/bamboo accents/finishes). I like the look of HD 598 but i heard bass is low. I need good bass as well as good vocal sounds.
Things I am looking for in order of most important
1. Absolute best sound quality for the money (good bass and vocal sounds and detail for tech house) - EDM
2. Needs to be withing budget of $200-$300
3. Style of headphones
4. Closed headphones
Sorry if I'm asking for a lot; this is my first post. I am open to any suggestions, reviews, and other brands.
Thanks
