Hi all,
I just signed up yesterday. I heard about your wonderful site from a friend who is essentially an evangelical of this community. For the past two days I have heavily searched the site looking for some information. While I narrowed down my choices, I would sure appreciate any help or advice you could offer.
Budget: $150 to $200 CAD
Brand: No specific brand loyalty. I have had a pair of Sennheiser EH-350. Served me well but time to move on.
Playback: Given that I'm pretty much tied to my wireless because of my profession, I've been using my iPhone as main music player. At this point, I don't have a big fancy sound system to plug the phones into. Perhaps some day but for now not a priority.
Mobility: I prefer they be somewhat mobile as I will be taking them to on the road from time to time. Mobility is not of utmost importance.
Music choices: I listen to mostly classical, electronic, ambient, jazz, some pop. Not much rock, no metal, hip-hop,......
Tonal quality is very important. It's important to have deep bass which is not distorted but at the same time I'm not specifically looking for phones that tend to lean towards more bass.
Sets I have been looking at:
Shure SRH840
Audio Technica ES7
M-Audio Q40
Beyerdynamic DTX900
Denon AH-D1001
I would really appreciate any advice! Thanks!!!
