Okay, I just bought the BOSE QC2 (pictured below) earphones cause I wanted some great sounding (open or closed doesn't matter to me, neither does noise cancellation) earphones. Now, I am an audiophile that has been out of touch with the new technology for the past 8 years (got married, had children). So lately I have been going through the music store sites looking for some good headphones with excellent sound quality. (I used to own a pair of TANNOY REAL-ACTIVE monitors for my stereo.)
And let me tell you, I would be the first to tell you that I do not like BOSE products. I think they sound like garbage. And against my better judgement and because I was no where near a SAM ASH store, I went ahead and purchased these headphones. Now I am thinking that BOSE put more into the noise deadening than into the actual sound quality.
I love listening to all types of music from hip hop to alt/classical rock, to salsa, to classical. And the source that I use for music is mostly my iPod and PC (my most favorite songs are all in "wav" format. I just want a audiophile quality headphone for $300 bucks (I am returning these BOSE ones).
My question is, what other headphones should I look into? I only have 30 days to get my full refund and I plan on going back out to the store in a few days.
This is my first post but I really need you all's help. Thanx in advance.
