Hey guys
I recently had a pair of Creative EP-630s die on me. I enjoyed having them, but don't usually listen to music in a mobile setting, so I don't think I want/need to get anything portable to replace them.
I am currently in college and, as can be expected, live in a somewhat noisy environment, as such I am looking for headphones with good isolation. However, if I had to rank different considerations in order of importance, it would proceed as such:
1. Sound Quality
2. Isolation
3. Comfort
In other words, while some amount of isolation is necessary, it doesn't need to be perfect provided sound quality is good, and I'd also sacrifice some comfort for either one.
Additionally, my price range is limited to about $70-80 maximum.
What sort of headphones should I consider?
Also, what sort of places could I go to for demos, if any?
