Thank you for your reply (u too serman!). The hip hop is more sample based, soulful, so not really heavy. The deep/chill house I make does feature a heavier (sub)bass more often.

Thank you for all the replies, appreciate it! Narrowing it all down seems hard though.   Looks like: Custom One Pro (144 euro) or ATH-M50x (140 eu) (normal m50 not available here looks like it, m50x is but long delivery time - I've got time though) Doesn't this one has a V shaped...

The DT770 32ohm is 144 euro's here, the 80 ohm 138 (so just a slight difference). Why the 32 above the 80? Just wondering :) COP is also 144. Thank you for the suggestion.

Do they NEED to be amped? Or is hooking it up to the Yamaha R300 stereo reciever also good ?

Great! And plugging it in to the (old) Yamaha R300 I have should be no problem ?

Thank you for your reply.   The AKG K167 are above my budget (240 euro here). The DT 770 LE are also above, nearing 200.  The DT 770 PRO's are 145 euro here. Ultrasone HFI 580 are 140 so would be a good option. M-Audio Q40 are 155.   How do they last two compare to the 770 Pro's ...

Quote: I understand. IS there an headphone in that range that is to be considered 'right in the middle' when it comes to Casual vs mixing/producing. I guess the choise I have now is the V6 or the HD280. I'll take a listen to both! Thanks  

Quote: Ok. I did hear the HD280 has a certain 'lack' of bass. Is that correct? I don't want too much bass, but def don't want a lack of. Are there better option perhapse, within a price-range of 150 bucks  

What do you think is best for Dance/house and hiphop production ? HD280 - DT 770 PRO - DT 990 PRO (because I heard the closed on the 770 can be tiring to the ears).   Or do you have other suggestions ?

How do the Sony MDR-ZX700 compare to Sennheiser HD280 or the 201 ?

How do the AKG K 121 Studio compare to the Sennheiser HD280 ?

Quote: Quote: Thank you both kindly! The Sennheiser HD280 seems to have good reviews and the price range is perfect as well. The Shure 840 seem to be a bit above my price range (so is the m50), are they significantly better than the HD280? Think the 280 will have a good shot to...

Because I'm getting some complaints lately about loud music in the house, I'm trying to find some decent heaphones to wear. It's for listening and (basic) mixing properties. Unfortunately my budget isn't that big, so I was thinking of something in between 70-80 euros. (around 100 dollars)  It's...
