The good old Sennheiser HD485 is pretty good for movies. They are real cheap used these days too.

 

[dark1evil2]

thanks for the replay

is the HD485 the best choice for my range ?

is it better than my ad700 in movies ?

 

[dark1evil2]

waiting for more opinions

 

[fenixdown110]

HD555 and HD595. Perhaps even some Beyers. They're pretty well rounded.

 

[dark1evil2]

thank you fenixdown110

HD555 looks good but is the HD555 much better than ad700 in movies ? and how is the bass

 

[dark1evil2]

any more opinions

next week i will order the headphone

I only listened to the HD595 briefly, but to my taste it doesn't have enough "slam" in the bass to be a good movie headphone.

Used HD580 can be had for $140- good for movies and music and a lot better than HD595 IMO.

i use the hd595 for tv shows on dvds/blu-ray and they're great for that. if you watch a lot of action movies, you'll probably want a phone with more bass. the m50 has a good bass and is well within your price range. i know the m50 is hip hop and pop but i have no clue what their feedback is for movies. you may want to look into that.

 

[dark1evil2]

thank you all

where i can buy HD580 amazon and newegg dont have them ! im going to see ebay

and what is better HD580 or m50 when it come to bluray movies

iv heard good about them but not sure what to get

 

[fenixdown110]

The HD580 will require an amp to drive them properly. The HD555 and 595 don't need one to sound great.

 

[dark1evil2]

will the sound card be enough ?

I used to use the Sennheiser HD-280 pro for Blu-ray. The HD-280 pro gives good isolation, and would be within your price range. Before Blu-ray I used a pair of HD-545's for movies. I now use D7000's for Blu-ray but they are more than you want to spend.

Unfortunately I do not have any experience with the Xonar, so I could not say how well it would drive the HD-280 pro.

For the HD580, no. Everything else mentioned doesn't need an amp.
