    Good headphones for Guitar Practice

    Thanks for the feedback Biggbenn74.   I'll knock them off the list and then there were 4 left:   AKG Q701 AKG K240Mk II Grado SR80i Grado SR225i   These seem to have the best response rates in the mid section without too much bass. It appears that the Grado's are almost...

    Good headphones for Guitar Practice

    I have combed through the past 5+years of Head-fi posts and have found some great suggestions, of course that leads to more questions. I went to the closest Guitar Center to try out a few phones and wanted to elicit opinions and what might be the best option for me since some of the headphones...
