hi folks!
i mostly listen to spoken word and vocals, occasionally watch movies, and rarely listen to music. i have been using a pair of sennheiser hd 25-1 II's. they sound wonderful, but my ears hurt if i use them for more than a couple of hours.
i used to have a pair of bose triport's that broke, and they were super comfortable.
so i'm looking for a pair of closed, circumaural headphones that are appropriate for what i listen to, that are going to be comfortable, and that can be used without a headphone amp. these will plug into an iphone, an ipad, a macbook pro, and occasionally into a mackie onyx 1640 mixer.
i'd like to spend no more than $300, but i'm certainly happy spending less.
i would appreciate your thoughts and any recommendations you might have.
thanks!
