Hi,
I currently own a pair of AKG K612 which I really like, to me the music presentation is just right. The problem I have is due to there open back design, I'm constantly being moaned at by my other half and daughter about the sound leakage. I would like to by a pair of closed back headphones only for home use that have a really controlled balanced sound similar to my K612's. I was considering the Oppo PM-3 or B&W P7 would either of these give me the sound I'm after. I listen to a real mix of music from Jazz to The Who
James Tayor, Joe Jackson, Bad Company, Pink Floyd, Amy Winehouse, The Raconteurs, The Rolling Stones to name but a few
What are your comments regarding my 2 options. I will be running them through a LINN Akurate DS streamer with a Chord HUGO DAC feeding the Headphones.
I hope someone can help suggest some other great alternatives around the £300 mark.
