Hi all,
I'm not what people would call an audiophile (yet XD), but I enjoy good music. The types of music that I listen most to are pop, country, and instrumentals (guitar, piano, and violin mostly), I tend to listen to music at lower volumes and I enjoy to have some substantial yet high quality base from time to time.
I currently own a pair of Sony MDR-V6, the sound is very clear and pleasant but the bass feels a bit weak and it's not fun enough for me (I suppose I'm a bass head @_@?)
I also have an HSU STF-1 Subwoofer sitting around somewhere that I used to plug into my computer's sound card (Xonar DX), but hasn't seen much use since I don't have a good pair of speakers to go with it.
Since I listen to music at least 2-3 hrs a day, I'm planning to invest a bit to make the experiences more pleasant. My budget is about 500-600, and I was wondering should I invest in a good pair of headphones or a good pair of speakers? Noise won't be an issue since I live by myself. After reading through the forums a bit I have my eyes laid on HE400 + Modi/Magni, but would there be other better options (headphones/speakers) out there for the price?
I'd appreciate any input from you guys!
