Hello All!
I've been reading and researching Headfi for a little over a month in hopes of finding a decent up grade to a pair of Sony headphones that I've had for about 6+ years. This is my first time in "good" quality headphones. A little about myself:
These headphones will be used through a laptop or iPod only. I have not ruled out the possibility of purchasing an amp to help power the headphones. I've looked at Fiio and ibasso, but am open to any suggestions.
I have narrowed down some decent choices, at least in my mind, that get the best reviews:
Audio Technica ATH-M50 Ultrasone HFI 580 Sennheiser HD439
I listen to a lot of rock, from classic to metal and everything in between. I do listen to a little dubstep and hiphop as well. I won't lie I am looking for a headphone that has a good amount of bass, but I also would like decent mid's and treble to accentuate guitars, cymbals, and vocals. I'm also open to any other headphones you believe might fit the bill better. The above listed were just the three I think work the best for my needs. Also, I'd like to stay under $150 as I'm in school and don't have too much money to throw around right now. Thanks in advance!
