Hi everyone,
I have been scouring this site for a few days now since I have been wanting to buy a new pair of headphones as my old ones broke. I had the Bose AE2, and the JVC HA-NC80. I did not buy either of these, they were gifts, however they are both broken now.
I realize that these headphones didn't actually have amazing sound quality, however the one thing I did love was the fit of the Bose AE2. I have been looking around on this site for a while now and am even more confused as to which headphones to get so I'm hoping one of you that are much more intelligent than me in this field could give a little help. Not so sure how to portray what i want so im just going to list criteria:
- Under £50 (preferably in the £40 range)
- Very little to no noise leakage, closed cup (at very high volumes I can understand some leakage, but using for public transport)
- Around the Ear fit (I do wear glasses at my desk so preferably something with very soft cushions, or not too much clamping force, the JVCs i had, even though they were on the ear, would give me severe pain with glasses on after just 20 mins of use, they were like a vice!)
I know this may sound kind of stupid of me to ask, but I would like them to look professional, so not too much design, fairly sleek and not huge cups. (On this site I have fallen in love with the look of the MDR-V6, if that helps styling wise)
Also, as far as what i listen to and music preference, I actually listen to just about anything, Rock, Rap, Dubstep, Hip Hop...if I like the sound of it, no matter what genre, ill listen to it.
Any recommendation and help is greatly appreciated.
Edited: Terrible Spelling and music preferences.
