Hello Head-Fi'ers,
I've been lurking the pages of head-fi for a few weeks, researching my options for a new pair of phones for under $150. My curiosity got the best of me and I finally found another good free email service(Yahoo isn't allowed for some reason
), so I could sign up and here i am. I mainly listen to underground hip-hop, but I also listen to most other types of music. I favor more tight deep bass over the rest of the spectrum, but still want to hear the rest. Contrary to what others might believe or say, Rap/Hip-hop listening can benefit from better audio equipment. Rap has deep bass, synthesized and live instruments, strings, brass, guitars, pianos, singing and rapping, and of course percussion. I will NOT buy an amp(hopefully). I'll usually listen from my computer(SB Live5.1) and sometimes form a pcdp. Now here are my questions: How much better is the bass on the A500? I'm wondering if the A500 will fit me right and create a good seal. Does anyone know the diameter of the ear-cups? Will I be able to listen to them in the car with a headrest? Which pair should I get? I can get them for about the same price. Any other suggestions? Uhh I feel like i'm forgetting something. . . Oh don't worry bout my wallet, Its my grades you should apolagize to!
