I've recently decided to sell my Hifiman He-400 and get a different headphone. The reason is because I hate the wire connectors. So now I'm back to the hunting phase. I do love the sound quality of the He-400s, I'm just trying not to be stuck paying for a $90 cable replacement in the future...

Sorry I know this is a change of mind but the more I've been looking I think I want an open back headphone. I mostly use them at night in my room to not wake anyone up. I hear open backs dont have a lot of bass though. I love watching movies and movie soundtracks. I hook my phones into a Yamaha...

Thanks everyone for your replies. I will definitely look into all of these. I always do weeks of research before i make my decision. Gotta get the best bang for my buck.

nah I like over the ear headphones

Not sure what that is.

Well i mostly listen to soundtracks, movies and games. I like the idea of open back but then again it may me too noisy around other people. So now my price range is $350 and below.

iI had the Ultrasone HFI-780 but one ear just randomly stopped working. Loved them over wise. just wanted to know what the best is in price range of $330 or below

Quote: It would be ways off for me to get something as expensive as those haha. Quote: Thanks for the advice. I'll think about everything more before I buy.

Quote: Well this being my first headphones over $50 I wanted it to be a good all around for any situation. Like being in a car for a long time with other people or if someone else is playing loud music or watching a loud movie. If I got open back cans I feel like they would only be good if...

I'm going to stick with the 780's. I do hear a lot of good things from the DT770 though. I wish I had the money for the D2000 but its a $150 difference from the 780's, I don't have that kind of money right now but perhaps someday.
