The Denon AH-D2000s are over $300.
Electronics Expo has them for $200 open box, just wait for it come around again. They only ship to US.
The Denon AH-D2000s are over $300.
B&H was exactly where I was looking at, best price right now and I've ordered from them before. I've looked at the HD25s and the V-Moda M80s as well, but I think I'd be happier with over-ears rather than on-ears...noisy apartment at times.
Good deal, I've heard mostly the same thing. Obviously some people like the extra detail, bassheads find the added bass more fun. I think the 780 would suit my needs as well. I'll give that combo a shot and see what I like better. I think I'd be happy with either.
Thanks to both of you for the responses and the help, appreciate it.
heavily considernig the shure 750s. I read that comfort is not ok, how about the materials? I will be sweating alot, are these types of headphones good?
I see. I'm not that picky with bass as long as it's a good quality bass. Strong bass in headphones tends to give me a mild headache. I see. I'm thinking of just getting the headphones and looking into a better headphone amp down the road.
um..i posted about this earlier but i'll try again
Jiggawhat recommended the XB500 for my music needs..types of music to be used with: Hip-hop and rap with some dubstep and which ever category Coldplay comes into..
i was reading up about its gaming capabilities (even though i'm getting the SteelSeries 7H), and some reviews say that the Samson SR850, RH600 and the Panasonic RP-HTF600 are pretty good too..any better than the XB500 in terms of music and FPS gaming?
What about the Sony MDR XD200
My budget is about $150USD and wouldn't mind enough portability to able to take my headphones for a walk..
Would any of the Shure ones be good?
They dont HAVE TO be good for gaming..just that it would be nice if they are..
Its okay if you tell me something is $200 because I can always spend a bit more for the better..
Thanks lads..
P.S. i checked up the price of the XB500 and its about $80 here in Aus so i dont care if its more than that..
Thanks boys,
hopefully i can be dealt with
Hey everyone,
I'm starting to drown in research. Hopefully someone can help me get things straight.
I'm looking for: comfortable, neutral, closed-back, circumaural headphones under $250.
I narrowed the closed-backs down to these contenders:
The ATH-M50s are supposed to be somewhat neutral but uncomfortable. (I have a big head.)
The Beyerdynamic DT770s are supposed to be very comfortable but bassy.
The Denon AH-D2000s are over $300.
So naturally I'm confused. I have a pair of Sennheiser 558s I really enjoy. I listen to mostly instrumental music, including classical, post-rock, soundtrack, etc.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much for your help!
So I posted earlier and after doing even more research, I decided that I really want over-ear headphones that I'll be using both at home and for travel once in a while. I don't mind larger ones as long as they're comfortable. My possibilities now include M50, MS 400, CAL!, HFI-580/780, SRH440, and I'm still open to other suggestions. Again, I mostly listen to hip-hop/techno/dubstep/reggae and will be using it with my iphone4 and macbook pro. My limit is $300 although I'd love if I could spend much less, especially since my ears aren't really trained (yet) for super good headphones (i've only had the bose triport, QC2 and klipsch s4) I also wanna avoid using an amp, though i'd consider it if it'd make a huge difference. I really appreciate the advice
Hi all! Yeah its me again haha. I am looking for an upgrade to the koss portapro i currently own. My budget is preferably below 300 usd. I am looking for comfortable bassy headphones(more emphasis on mid bass) and does not compromise on clarity. I want to wear it for prolonged usage. Oh I listen more of trance, techno, dance, rock metal and pop.
I have auditioned the ahd 2000 which i found to be lacking in mid bass and sounds hollow. Ath m50 and ath pro700mk2 to be rather uncomfortable and unmatched with the bass of my portapro(clarity wise i cannot really tell the difference too). I have also tried the Xb 500 and 700 series of sony. They are comfortable but sound muddy and muffled..
I am currently thinking of the v-moda crossfades lp2 headphones, but I am unable to try them out in singapore(no stores carry them). Do you all have any suggestions for me?
thank you in advance
I had a pair of 555's its definately between the 555 or 440, Are the 440'similiar in terms of sound? I notice you have a pair in youre picture
Sorry I meant 750 and 440 lol. I have a 555 in for repair
