Later this year I plan to move into a dorm at Mississippi State University ,having finally completed high school. What advice can you guys give me on picking a proper pair of headphones for this environment. My current headphones are as follows: ER6i, Shure Ec, AKG k26p, and Sennheiser eh2200. My musical tastes are alternative rock such as Shiny Toy Guns, Arctic Monkeys, Franz Ferdinand, Dave Matthews etc.. and some instrumental stuff has recently been growing on me. My price range is up to $200 for now. Ive looked at a pair of Sennheiser 595 and liked them but also Ive been eyeing a pair of Audio Technicas. They will be driven from a vintage sansui amplifier most of the time and occasionally from my macbook. So basically I'm undecided and would welcome any direction from those of you who have more knowledge and experience in this area.
Also I like the idea of wireless headphones but realize that these tend to be lower in quality so I have shied away from them. Is that a justified presumption?
