Hi everyone.
I'm currently in high school (I'm graduating this year) and looking for a great set of headphones to last me through college and beyond.
I've done some research, and the general consensus is that the ATH-M50 and DT770 are the two best pairs to be had under $200.
With that said, I ended up buying the ATH-M50 a day or two ago. They're the best headphones I've ever used, and I think they're fantastic overall. However, I would really, REALLY appreciate it if some of you could give me a few alternatives to look at before I make this purchase final. So, here's what I'm looking for:
-Closed-back
-Over-ear
-Fairly portable
-A decent level of comfort for moderately long listening sessions
-A great MIDRANGE. I"m not a basshead, and as long as the highs are good enough, I'm fine; however, I would really appreciate a solid midrange with lots of detail and warmth, as well
-On a side note, I've read that the ATH-M50 has recessed mids. Could anyone clarify this for me?
-I listen to lots of rock, orchestra music, piano music, and more rock
-Remember, these are going to be my only pair of HPs for the next 5-10 years, so please, recommend wisely!
Thanks again everyone!
