Hi,
 
Currently I own Audio Technica ATH-M35 headphones and am using it with my laptop and my phone, and they sound pretty good to me. I am thinking of ordering ATH-M50 and was
wondering if they would sound significantly better? M50 has impedance 38ohms while M35 has 65 and I usually have to set the volume 80% on my phone to enjoy these.
 
Is it a wise choice to upgrade to M50 ? I will not be using any kinds of amps. I am looking for more detailed sound and a bit better bass. I am really impressed with audio technica stuff and want to try out even better cans!
 
Thanks

m50 definitely is an upgrade to the m35 in terms sound quality... based on the impedance you mentioned, the m50 will be easier to drive
