Hey everyone. I've been lurking on these forums for a while and decided to register now. I need help deciding which headphones to get.
I'm looking for over-ear headphones for use at home. I thought spending around 100 €. Possibly more but honestly, I haven't really had any proper headphones before and I'm not sure how much it's worth spending on them. I need them mostly for a digital piano and listening to music(mostly classical, ragtime, some jazz perhaps) but also for watching videos and playing video games.
I've looked at these so far, they seem to have gotten mostly positive reviews:
Couldn't find any proper discussion / reviews on the Nokia headphones. I could get an unused pair for ~80€ from someone I know. They aren't what I'm looking for exactly but if the sound quality is good, whatever.
Is it worth spending a lot on headphones if you don't have a proper sound card, though? I have an integrated sound card at the moment and haven't planned to get a separate one.
Thanks!
