New Head-Fier
What's up guys.
I've been looking for a new pair of cans for a while. I've owned a few good pairs, but I'm looking to get a good pair that will last me a while.
I am looking to spend around $200-300, but if the phones are a little bit more or less, it's fine.
Not extremely bass heavy, but it needs to be present.
I have no specific preference to open/closed, as I would obviously not like my headphones to leak, but I do want higher sound quality.
Looks hardly matter at all, these are going to stay connected to my desktop in general.
I am looking for good clarity, noticeable bass, basically a pair of headphones that I'll really enjoy listening to music to.
I don't have an amp, so if there is a specific headphone/DAC/amp combo that you want to suggest, fire it away.
On advice from MalVeaux, I've been looking at the AKG K167s and the Ultrasone DJ1s, but I'm leaning more towards a nice pair of Grados. I find myself close to purchasing the SR80is.
If anyone has some good experience with headphones that are similar to what I just described, I would definitely appreciate some help.
Thanks a lot.
