Closed, full-size, decent isolation, good sound....Beyerdynamic T70 or AT w1000X ???
OK, I'm upping the budget for closed, over-ear, good isolation, primo SQ phones. The T70 and the w1000x seem like contenders (and each is available for around $550). Thoughts? Opinions? Others I am overlooking? Thanks!- JerseyD
