I've never been to really high end clubs and stuff, but most PA systems are far from high-fi.  Their distortion is off the charts.

I know theres difference between hi-fi speakers and PA's, i own a hi-fi system + little studio for messin around with my tunes, but now were coming back to were we started first, im on a quest to find a headphone that would give me a thrill of a gig but would have the accuracy of a very good monitor! any thoughts?

 

[TMRaven]

That I can not answer as I've not heard many of those headphones in the running, but I'd bet money on the Pro900s being the best speaker-like impact of them.

 

[TRANCEilvanian]

Maybe i'll try the PRO 900's coz there cheaper and if not happy try'n sell them and then just go for the ultimate LCD-2! Thanks for your help again!

There ya go!  Headphones have great resell value, especially if you buy them used in the first place.

I do not recall you mentioning the listening conditions that you usually have when listening through your HP.

 

[TRANCEilvanian]

What do you mean by listening conditions? Like sitting on a sofa in a quiet room?

That would be one possibility.  In general, will it be used more as a portable during public transportation, train, bus, walking, jogging, running, home only, etc.

 

[TRANCEilvanian]

Yes for home use only! I asume that most good headphones are not really made for outdoors except pro IEM's?

If you want more of a multi-useable HP you can try one of the offerings from Ultrasone. Either the Edition 8 or the Signature Pro should work with your type of music. I will be getting the Ed8 some time next week so I can give you my thoughts on it next week.

And the Pro 900 is an excellent choice for a lot less money. I have them now and they are one of the top picks for EDM/trance in its price range.

Good luck with your search!

Ed8 really look fantastic!

 Do of course let me know how they sound! Cheers for that! Portability is not exactly a problem i don't travel that much and if i do i can always bring sen HD25.

Lcd 2 or Denon D7000 are both exceptional. When I wanna rock out to EDM I prefer the denons there just a really fun headphone dont bother with the Pro 900 there really overrated IMO, i had them for a few months tried to like them but they just didnt do it for me. If I were you id get the denons and a decent ss and you should be very happy.

 

[TRANCEilvanian]

Just looking at Denon D7100 they look quite sexy! Would they have better sound than D7000 i wonder?

D7100 has been released recently.
Still not enough impressions and comparisons around to make a conclusion.

 

[TRANCEilvanian]

I'm not rushing, don't want to buy something that would make me want to upgrade again straight away! I'll just have to play the waiting game now! I think it will most likely be Ultrasone Ed8 or Denon's D7100 if there better than D7000.
