Hi folks,
I'm looking for an open headphone that will be used mostly on the computer for dvd watching and gaming. For music, it'll be mostly folk, with some rock and classical thrown in. I've got a 50 dollar sound blaster card (don't remember the model but can look it up if it matters) and don't plan on adding any further amplification or anything else to my rig.
I'd naturally like for it to be suitable for mp3 player/ receiver use, but these are secondary.
$150 US is the most I want to spend, but I'm willing to bide my time and wait for deals (used cans are also fine). I like the Sennheiser and Ultrasone brands, but perfectly happy to go outside those. Comfort is very important.
Also, $90 or so is probably the least that I'd spend, but if I'm not going to see a big improvement by shelling out for my full budget, I'd rather get in under the mark.
I like clean bass and decent mids, and I'd say that I don't have audiophile ears. Thanks!
