OK so currently i am portable headphone user that has only used IEM's. I mostly listen to my Aurisonics ASG 2 but i also listen to my weston 4, 3umx and klipsch x11i sometimes. The prices of these range from 300$ to 500$ when i bought them so I'm wondering if a full size open back headphone for 100$ will sound decent compared to buds like those or if it will be dull and muted? Beyond that though in term's of music i listen to i run the full spectrum although i am slightly more partial to rock such as led zeppelin and radio head. What im looking for in a phone would have to be the mids bass and treble can be a bit recessed in comparison but i really would like the mids to be the best part of the phone.
In terms of equiment i would be driving them straight from my desktop, although i do have a fiio x11 with a LOD i could use if necessary. Also leakage and and seal are not an issue but i would like something that is at least semi comfortable. With that being said any recommendations or insight would be greatly appreciated I am quite a noob at home audio so if i am expecting too much out of a 100$ budget just say so. Anyway thanks for reading in advance.
