It sounds like you didn't read his last post. Grado's are open headphones, which would be completely useless in his "classroom scenario". Plus you said they sound terrible without EQ which the OP probably will not have on the go.
DatGameh - go with your gut. It sounds like you have very specific needs in mind, and may have already made up your decision about the ANC9's. For me - a pair of closed headphones and some decent volume can drown out all but the loudest classroom environments. I would take the more pleasurable listening experience over the active noise cancelling any day. But to each his own. Audio is very subjective. Go with your gut until you find something you love, and something that works for your scenario. We're not going to be able to tell you that.
Ah. I see.
Just go with what I think is best for me, huh.
Alright then. I guess audio was more subjective than I thought.
Very well then. I guess I will stick with the ANC9s, since they feel more useful to me. I also don't have that much experience with audio, so I might not really mind...
Thanks a bunch for all your help!
But, uh, if you don't mind, I have just one more question before I leave...
If a normal, closed back headphone had its sound quality scored 10/10, in comparison, how much will the active noise cancelling headphones score in your opinion?
Thanks, again!
