500+ Head-Fier
I need a pair of good, cheap headphones for broadcasting school, so I've decided to make my next headphone purchase a HD280 and a JMT instead of the Stax SR-001 in-ear electrostatics that I was going to get. But, since I am going to have a job after I get out of school, I've decided that I can save up for some REAL headphones in the $500 range. My first idea was a Stax Classic from EIFL. I don't care about the lack of tactile bass, and the smallish while at the same time large soundstage that characterizes the Stax sound seems very intriguing. As does the hyper-detail afforded by electrostatics. But, are there better headphones out there for around the same amount of money that I should also be considering, if so, could you give me a comparison between them and the Stax? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
