Hi,
I'm a sound engineer needing to mix rock/pop/funk/soul/acoustic music on headphones. I read an article in Sound On Sound magazine recommending Sennheiser 650 and AKG K701. However, as I will be mainly using them with the headphone amp in my Focusrite saffire, and with cheap behringer headphone amps, would the lower impedence 595's be a better choice?
I don't need them to sound hyped or exciting, just an accurate balanced sound, especially in the bass end (my studio monitors are extremely bass light). I need to know what is really happening in the mix, so i can make confident decisions.
I guess i could also get a CMOY off ebay, if nessesary, but i don't have a lot of cash.
Which cans would be the most suitable for my needs?
