I currently have Beyer DT770 pro 80s and theyre great. I love the bass..however there are times Id like something with less recessed mids and clarity. Also I game a lot so I need more soundstage for positional audio. I have some money so I can spend probably up to 400..maybe a touch more. I really want to try some orthos but Im worried Im not going to get enough bass from them. I checked out some HE500s and HE400is today and they sounded great but there wasnt a ton of bass impact....granted I wasnt listening to bass heavy music either..but still when the bass did hit...it was good just not very powerful. Ive heard the Fidelio X2s have great bass..for an opend back headphone..and thats the catch I think. Ive heard the he400 has good bass..but recessed mids and thats one thing Im trying to avoid. Also Ive heard they're not very comfortable and I can attest to that because wearing he HE500s I dont think I could wear them for hours on end.
So narrowing it down for a basshead is there an Ortho that can do the job? I want all the clarity, separation with great mids and high, with the impact. I dont want something where the bass stomps everything else. Maybe there are other phones out there that I havent considered? Maybe it cant be done with orthos...maybe it can be done at all....
Reccos would be appreciated....or tell be Im asking for too much lol.
