I am considering getting one of these two awesome open cans. I've read the thread comparing the two solely for gaming purposes, but I'm looking for solely musical purposes. I'd also would rather not at this time purchase an amp (out of my budget), and would prefer a can that's balanced, and works well undriven, but is also fun. Here's some of my information...
Music - Indie/Alternative (Belle & Sebastian, New Pornographers, The Hold Steady), Trip-Hop (Massive Attack, Morcheeba, chill Electronic stuff), Rap (Roots, Kanye, Outkast, Jay-Z), Jazz (Coltrane), Post-Rock (Tortoise, Samuel Jackson Five), The Clash, Neo-Soul - Yeah I listen to everything equally, but mostly the above
Source - iPod Touch, iPod Classic and iBook. Purchasing an amp at this time is out of the question
Budget - $250. Maybe a tad more, maybe a tad less.
I already own the A900's, and enjoy them. I also own the UM1's as my IEM, but otherwise, that's about it...
All suggestions/opinions welcome
