Hey everyone,
On my search for a portable headphone, I have finally narrowed it down to the V-MODA M-80s, the Sennheiser Amperiors, and the Beyerdynamic DT1350s. I am looking for the perfect headphone for being on a train, in a coffee shop, etc. Basically light commuting. I do like isolation, but I will need to be able to hear my surroundings, be it while I'm listening, or via easy-swivel headphones, that I could swivel aside while listening to the train announcement. I definitely cannot have a lot of bleeding so that others won't be annoyed. I also do have a guilty preference for the style of the M-80s...
I would, of course, love the best sound quality of the three with my following specs...
My sources are a 2009 13 inch mac book pro, a newer classic iPod, and an iPhone 4, and I am not going to have an amp with me.
Types of music I listen to on a regular basis are jazz (mainly fusion), rock, classic ock, electronic (many different genres), ska, world, alternative, indie, etc. Basically everything, but definitely a heavy emphasis on jazz genres and electronic genres.
I anyone could give me some advice based on my specs that would be great. In addition, I'm not really looking for further suggestions because I've already narrowed it down to these three.
Thanks to everyone in advance!
