I currently own the Sennheiser HD 380 pro, they sound great but they are bulky, heavy and hard to carry so most of the time I end up using the Sennheiser Precision CX-300, which is sad. I've been looking lately into buying a pair of bluetooth headphones to replace my HD 380 but I'm not too sure if they are worth it.
So far I have had the oportunity to listed to the Jabra Revo Wireless and I honestly would keep my 380s.
I've done a little research and stumbled across many posts, like this one, and so far the Audio Technica WS99BT and Plantronics Backbeat Pro seems like the best choices, the higher price tag and the aforementioned post suggest that these are better choices than the Jabra, but are they worth the money in comparison to my actual setup?
I mainly listen to Rock, Pop, Metal, some electronic and maybe classical music. I listen to it (using headphones) at conmute or work (that's why I want portability), at home I use my speakers. So, what do you guys think?
Here are my impressions:
AT WS99BT (200€ but coming from Japan, so I don't know how much will shipping be):
+ AT is praised everywhere, so is this particular model
- Only found a couple of reviews, the few that I found are very possitive but still very few and they are hard to find for sale so it gets me thinking why they don't receive more attention if they are so good.
+ I like how they look.
- Plasticy
- The non bluetooth model (AT WS99) gets a few bad reviews
Plantronics Backbeat Pro (200€):
- Reviews suggest that mids and highs are not as good as with the WS99BT
+ More features (open mic & active noise cancellation)
- Bulkier
- First time I hear about that brand
As always thanks in advance, you guys rock.
