New Head-Fier
I was wondering if y'all could help me decide what headphones to get, meeting the following requirements:
portable
not IEM
capable of being driven by an IPod w/o amp
capable of handling gym use
will be used to listen to anything from chamber music to industrial
good isolation
I've read alot of the reviews on headroom.com and based on those it seems like the Sennheiser PX100 or AKG k26 P would be best. Pros and cons as I see them: Senns: not as dynamic of a sound, not as rugged and I don't like the idea of foam cushions. AKG - more bass oriented and therefore not the best for baroque.
I'm open to suggestions. Thanks.
