Hi! I know that choosing a pair of headphone is ultimately a subjective choice. However, I'm sure this forum's experience could really help me.
Here's my dilemna: I'd like to buy some *nice* cans. I'm looking at the Sehnheiser HD 650, which retails around 210 pounds GBP ($550).
Now on the other hand I keep hearing a lot of hype about those in-ear monitors, such as the Shure E4 Pro or the coming Shure E500, which also happen to cost quite a bit less. I'm really enthusiastic about their high isolation in particular.
The question is: sound quality-wise, at the same price range, which one would sound better? A regular pair of cans or the 'in ear' ones? I listen to electronica, trip hop, etc.
I look forward to your suggestions and getting the cans to make me look like this
