Hey everybody,
I'm new here and have a few questions.
I've searched through the forums for the past month or so, seemed like this one had the most information. Or most amount of quality information.
Right, to the questions. Hopefully they aren't repetitive newb questions, Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
I'm somewhat new to the intense audio game. Currently I have Sennheiser MX470 earbuds and Sony MDR-XB500 headphones.
The MX470 are good for the money ~ $30, little bass but good treble. I like them for portable use.
MDR-XB again good for the money ~ $50, good strong bass, sometimes sounds blah-ish, not as crisp sounding as I would like.
I would like to invest in some new headphones in a couple months. I have been thinking of the Ultrasone hfi-780, would you guys recommend these for me? Not looking to spend more than 200
My music taste, real big into trance.... Above&beyond, Armin, Markus Schulz, Cosmic Gate, Dash Berlin, Sunlounger, etc.
Also into rock/heavy rock.... Killswitch, BFMV, Disturbed, Coheed&Cambria, Avenged Sevenfold, Old Escape the Fate, Senses Fail, etc.
And also some rap, not really hip-hop.... Eminem, Mobb Deep, Kanye, Young Jeezy, NaS, ect.
So based on my music tastes, would you still recommend the Ultrasone's. Or would you say there are better alternatives in my price range. Also amp information and advice would be nice. I don't know much or understand much about that yet. The headphones would be used mainly at my computer, if that helps? I'm on stock computer soundcard also.
Thanks again.
