As the title says, please help me choose a headphone/IEM that would suit my needs
This will be my first purchase to the audiophille world!!
Budget - $300-400
Use - with my ipad/ipod and at home into a desktop with asus esence xtc sound card. Strictly for music only!
requirements - must sound good without an amp. But will consider an amp in the future, once my ears gets better lol. Some portability is a plus
Some choices i have but not limited to:
-bower and wilkin p5 (from reviews, this is my choice, until i came to head-fi.org!!)
-Shure se535 (out of budget from where i am)
-Sennheiser pxc450
-klipsch x10i
-sennheiser ie8
-akg k701 (not sure whether i need an amp for this)
-denon d2000 (not sure whether i need an amp for this)
-sennheiser hd650 (not sure whether i need an amp for this)
I have very little knowledge on headphones and amps, i hope this first purchase will help me move on to better music listening experience. Being in a band and just starting recording, music is a great passion!!
I apologise if there are any weird and questions that dont make any sense
cheers audiophilles
