Well, after a few weeks of research I ordered a set of SR80s last week. These are to be my first set of "proper" heaphones I was originally going to go after a set of AD700s but a criticism that kept on coming up was the lack of bass and considering that 97% of my music collection is made up of old reggae and 90s hip hop, head shaking bass is important to me. I heard from a few separate sources that the SR80s packed more bass and literally pulled out my credit card right then and there.
Now this morning (the day the SR80s are due to be delivered!) I'm doing a bit of research to see if I had made the right choice, and then I annoyingly stumble across the DT770 Pros (funnily enough in the buyer's guide of this site that I had somehow managed to miss in the several weeks lurking here!) which are absolutely IDEAL for what I am after - They pack a lotta bass, have a good build quality (I don't look after my things too well
), good for movies and games and have the bonus of being closed which is fairly important as I intend to use them on public transport and such.
To add insult to injury I did a little more research into the SR80s directly and hear that they are crap for movies and games, which is what I'd probably need them for more than music!
I'm seriously starting to regret my decision to go with the SR80s... Can anyone say anything to make me feel better, or should I bite the bullet and send back the SR80s because they aren't suitable for my needs?
Any thoughts welcome
