Hi everyone,
This is my first post in Head-Fi. I have been visiting this site for last 6-7 months and I have seen plenty of people getting help from you guys. So I thought lets give it a try.
Actually I have decided to buy a quality headphone. I have been searching the web to find the best possible can. But I still have my share of doubts. I am no audiophile and not an expert, but I sure do love my music. I mainly listen to Alternate Rock, Rock, psychedelic rock, Progressive Rock, Ambient Rock, Chill pop,folk, soul (Marvin Gaye), Blues and Jazz, Classical (Mozart, Erik Satie, Claude Debussy), Basically I listen to all kind of music except Hip Hop, R&B, Rap and any kind of Metal songs. So I dont clearly want Beats kinda Bass. I want a headphone which I can wear for long hours, the sound stage should be pretty good. Also with the right amount of low,mid,high ratio. I know I just described the perfect headphones, but cant help it.
My budget is around 300$. I have seen couple of headphones and liked them.
They are
1. Sony MDR 1A
2. Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO ( I know the DT880 PRO has more neutral sound, but I dont mind them being little colorful)
3. Sennheiser HD 598
Can you guys tell me what would be the best choice for me as per my music interests? Any other name would be helpful too. I am just a newbie, so if I made any mistake , please go easy on me.
P.S. I want to know about the difference between PRO and PREMIUM of DT 990 Series, I have seen couple of threads mentioning that they dont have any difference in terms of sound quality. Its just the look and the build quality. Is it true?
Please help me out guys. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
