Hi,
I am a new member of this forum. Recently I have been looking out for some decent headphone for personal listening. I am not "headphile" as you term it, I am just an audio buff, I like clean and natural sound. I listen at high SPLs. I love bass (many of us do). I listen to all popular music genres except for Jazz/Blues/Classical stuffs. I am not planning to invest heavily on a head-fi setup. Just wanna use my portable stereo and my home audio setup with a decent headphone. My budget is around $50 can be stretched a bit. I am from India and we dont have many options here. After few rounds of auditioning, I am able to shortlist Sennheiser HD437 and Behringer HPX2000.
Among these two I liked Behringer for sheer clarity, clean and almost accurate mids. Bass was ok on both but again highs were much better in Behringer.
I am still looking out for Senn HD457/477, not yet got my hands on and also the Behringer HPX4000 is one of the options I have to check out.
Here are my question:
Whats the diiference between Studio Headphones and DJ Headphones, which one is more suitable for home listening on a Portable player ?
Have any of you checked out these headphones ?
Are there better options than these in this budget ?
I know Behringer is not popular for Headphones but still at the asking price do you think Senns beat the Behringer (in case you have heard both).
Here are the prices quoted to me here in India:
Senn HD437 : $40
Behringer HPX2000: $35
Kindly give your suggestions.
