Hi all!
I bought on sale a Marshall Major III headphones (wired). They sound good (to me), but I was wondering the following...
I listen to a lot o metal, mainly late 80s/early 90s thrash metal (width that scooped palm muted guitar riffs - think Anthrax, Testament, Overkill, etc.), death metal, doom metal, etc.
The Marshall's are doing great but I have not compared them with others so I don't now what I'm missing, if anything..., and I was wondering if there's a more satisfiing good/affordable (below 200€) headphones that are considered good for "metal", better than the Major III's.
I've read somewhere that Grado SR-60e or the 80 would be a good headphone and I also read about the Sennheiser HD25 are good for "metal".
Considering the Marshall Major III I have, do you think any of these mentioned would be a considerable upgrade for "metal" or are the Major III's already a good match for this style? If not, any other alternatives?
They may be over-ears, on-ears, open/closed back, everything except IEMs.
Thanks in advance!
