Hello,
First off I'm no expert when it comes to headphones, but I'm especially picky about every gadget i choose to purchase. Right now I own a set of creative ep-635 in-ear earphones which served me for a good 2 years. But truth be told I've never found them satisfying.
I'm on a tight budget so I've narrowed down my choices between Sennheiser HD428 and HD515 for listening on my HP Envy 14 beats edition. Well, HD515 would've been a no brainer but it's rated at 50ohms and I'm not sure if laptop's on board audio is powerful enough to make it sound good, especially that I'm not going to use an external amp or DAC.
I'm going to pick on of them tomorrow, i hope you guys can help me.
