I just ordered Cowon D20 player from Japan + Audio Technica ATH-CKM500 in-ear headphones. But I also need full sized balanced headphones. I have a tight budget so they have to survive a long time. I do not know too much but when I listened to the Beats at my local store I decided I will never ever listen to such crappy sound. I am going to listen music mostly from my Cowon and sometimes from my Hi-Fi system. Also I like to be able to listen to Mozart, Spanish acoustic guitar, latino, classical rock, church choir music, scottish bagpipers, reggae music. You get the point
They have to be really rugged, good sounding for all kinds of music and to be able to listen without an amplifier. So far I chose some. Tell me what you think and/or suggest more.
1. Audio-Technica ATH-PRO500MK2 (looks very rugged and the price of 100$ is great too but not sure if it is suitable for all kinds of music).
2. Audio-Technica ATH-ES700 (it looks bombproof but you can not detach the cable
)
3. V-MODA Crossfade LP2 (very cool look and a lot of accessories included, but I do not know about the sound).
4. Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro (It is really nice to regulate the bass and to change everything that wears out on them and to add mic for using with skype).
5. AKG K181DJ (they look great and have bass switch similar to Beyerdynamic but not sure about durability of the plastic swivels and are they okay for portable players?).
6. Sennheiser HD25-1 II.
Waiting for your advice. Thank you.
