Hi guys,
I need some help deciding on which headphone should I get. I've narrowed it down to these two.
The Soundmagic HP150 is $178.99 on amazon.com
The Shure SRH840 is $169.99 on headphone.com (with the new headfi15 coupon)
I want a comfortable neutral closed headphone with good isolation and solid build.
I listen to (in order of frequency): classical, jazz, blue, classic rock, bossa nova, ethnic music, and a little bit of everything else.
I plan on using them at work (a relatively noisy laboratory), so they need to isolate and be sturdy since I'll be putting them on and off a lot (I previously had a Brainwavz HM5 and enjoyed their sound, but the headband cracked after 2 years).
Which one do you think is better for these prices?
