Hi Guys,
Last year, I got myself a pair of Ultimate Ears 5 Pros (Custom) and I love 'em. Only problem is that I like listening to music at work. Some days, I have to speak a lot to people, and it gets to be quite uncomfortable to keep removing & putting them back on. So I was thinking of getting a pair of headphones to use at work.
I know this is really like comparing apples with oranges, but what sort of budget would I need to purchase a full-size headphones that will sound almost as good as a pair of UE 5 Pros (Custom)?
I read a lot about the Audio-Technica ATH-M50s, would these be an ideal option? I listen to a wide variety of music, but if I really couldn't afford a pair of headphones that caters to all, I would settle for something that is good for fast, bass-heavy songs (This covers 60% of the type of music I listen to ).
FYI my current setup is:
iPhone to Fiio E7 to UE 5 Pros
Thanks in advance for your help, guys!
