Having used the Sennheiser HD25-1 II for a while, I'm looking for a new upgrade. Here's what I'm looking for in my new headphones:
- closed headphone
- low amount of sound leakage
- should work well unamped (straight from my portable MP3 player)
- needs to work well with Hip Hop, RnB and Techno
- tight, controlled bass with some volume (I hate flabby bass)
- neutral sounding headphones (sometimes the Sennheisers seemed to add some coloration to the midrange, which I did not care for)
- bigger soundstage than the Sennheisers
- fits within my budget (around $300)
I already heard the Shure SRH840 and was impressed by them, but I could not hear them straight from my MP3 player. How do these sound unamped?
I also heard a lot about the ATH-M50, how do these compare to the Sennheisers and Shures?
Any suggestions?
Thanks! ^_^
