Hello guys, I don't remember if I had another user so I just went ahead and created another one.
I'm looking for headphones to use at my desk. Overall computer usage. Music most of the time, and games. Will also use them connected to the receiver to watch movies late at night when the wife is sleeping.
So, they are going to be used for loooong periods of time. Right now I have some on-ear that I like, but they were bought for portability, not for permanent usage. I moved recently and left my headphones at home, so I need a new pair for my desk.
Anyway, I'd buy the superlux that everybody talks about, but my desk is next to the TV and my wife loves to play **** with a lot of annoying noise, so I'd say it's gonna be terrible to have anything that is not closed.
My second option was the ATH-M20x that go for $45ish, until I saw these:
https://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATH-T200-Closed-Back-Dynamic-Headphones/dp/B0093GXOCI/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
For under 30 (And prime shipping yay!)
The reviews are very good, but I don't trust Amazon reviews as much as yours.
What do you guys think? Safe bet or try the cheaper ones?
Any other recommendations are also appreciated. Altough I enjoy bass I rather have something that sounds clear but not crispy, and not mid-centered because it would sound like AM radio to me. I'd take clear not crispy over bassy but muddy, but I guess I'm not too special on that.
Thanks!
