So...I'm new to these forums but love reading reviews around here! My budget is ~$100 for my first pair.
Anyway...I've finally decided to break down and buy my first "high-end" set of phones. I work in a small office setting (I do have my own office but I'm in a 'pod' with 3 other ppl around me, so I am somewhat worried about sound leakage. I had originally decided to pick up a pair of Grado SR60's from here but he was nice enough and explained they had a lot of sound leakage...a friend in the office has a pair of Sen HD555's that are not too bad and I've read that the Grado's leak much worse.
So...I want a decent set of phones w/ little leakage (think HD 555's). I don't think that I want the 555's simply b/c they sound 'flat' to me w/ no bass...but I've only listened for about 20-30mins on them.
I have been looking at the Klipsch S4's or the R-Zero's for earbuds or the Schur M50's and Denon D1001's for some can's.
I just need a few suggestions and a good place to buy as I can't seem to find the R-Zero's at all!!
Thanks!
