Greetings to all head-fiers
I have recently bought my AKG K-701 headphones, "burned" them and I can say that I am quite excited by the way they sound. My musical/acoustic experience has changed significantly, making me a true lover of good quality headphones.
The thing is though, that I enjoy listening to music late at night and the AKGs, being open, really sound loud in the house.
So, the question is rather simple - Are there any Closed Headphones, with the capability of sounding kinda like the K-701s do? I mean, will they have the large soundstage, the deep and detailed bass, the perfect clarity and monitoring sound, of the AKGs?
If yes, which are they?
The price range I am talking about is between 300-500$ in retail, though of course I will be buying them probably from eBay (got my AKGs for 190€ when in Greece they cost more than 380€).
The music I like listening to is...erh..:
Rock/Metal (+Progressive and Symphonic Metal)/Jazz/Blues/Funk/Psychedelic Trance (Deedrah, Infected Mushroom and the like)/Drum n Bass/Ambient/Electronica/Classical/Orchestral
A big variety as you can see
I am waiting for your counsel
