Alright, new to actual quality headphones and was just hoping to get some insight on a few things.
I've had what I think are Sony MDR-EX71's(Came with SE W810i) and have found them to be quite good aside from having little response on the midrange and I find the volume needs to be higher than I'd like personally. I do have an affinity for bass and so long as it doesn't take away too much from the other spectrum's I like my bass as strong as it can be. Recently purchased the HX33's and I can't say I find them appealing at all. I personally find the sound far too bright and the bass response far from optimal(cracking on bass-heavy tracks ie Massive Attack-Angel)
Have had them burning in with pink noise and it has helped make them less harsh but the foam tips don't seem to agree with my ears so I'm looking for something that will be a bit better without breaking the bank.
Looking to spend no more than $75 or so(will go used/ebay if need be)
Basic requirements- Good range(sub-20hz to about 22khz or so) Good isolation, Comfort, Build quality and price.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
