Hey everyone, I'm a somewhat long time lurker of this site and I finally decided to make a post.
..so hi
Anyway I have about 300$ to burn right now,(which I attained through a series of VERY fortunate coincidences) and I'm looking for the best possible pair of Over-ear cans with good isolation and bass.
I'm upgrading from a pair of ksc75's and sony mdr-v6's(which i personally did NOT find too sibilant, but felt were slightly lacking in bass.)
Anyway I know asking for the absolute best pair is sort of like asking for a shirt that fits everyone, but are there any phones out there that are generally regarded as near perfect at this range?
atm 300$ is my price cap
Thanks in advance and cheers
p.s.: I really wish I had the luxury of trying things before I buy them, but here in Hawaii(at least on the particular island i live) there are no hi performance audio dealers anywhere near me, so i'm counting on your trained and honed ears, and experience.
(I will be using these with my cowon d2 as well as anything else i can find lol)
edit: I know there are about a million of these type threads, so for that I apologize, but it seems like its hard to base a consensus off of the other threads. And the stickied buying guide doesn't have detailed descriptions.
