Hello Folks
I’m on to my second year at the university on which I study “sound and music production”, and I’m in need of some serious full-size cans that I can use while working in school and in the studio. I have an old pair of DT770 that I’ve been using for over four years now, and since that I’m now used to their sonic character I know how to work with them. So I was first thinking of getting the new version of DT770 and continue mixing as if nothing was new. But since it’s fun to buy new things I remembered this forum and your expertise.
Since I’m going to analyse and pre-mix music with my new headphones, I want a headphone that is as flat and smooth as possible for a closed design in my price range. It also has to be able to dig fairly deep into the sub-bass regions, since I produce electronic music. I know that a closed design usually isn’t as linear as an open model such as the HD650, but a closed design is a must. Semi-closed models that cancels out noise pretty good is also interesting.
I’ve been thinking of these models (the Denon is about as much money I can spend)
AKG K 271 MK II
Audio-Technica ATH-A700
Beyer Dynamic DT770
Beyer Dynamic DT880
DENON AH-D2000
Thank you in advance…
