Hey guys, I need recommendations for a portable headphone
I'm just thrilled with the sound of my HiFiMan RE-400s. I love how musical they are.
Now I'm wondering if I can get a set of portable headphones (not IEMs) that have a similar
sound signature? Over ears/Around ears/Open/closed it doesn't matter. I listen to a variety
of genres: pop, jazz, classical, rock.
For reference purposes, I have a pair of Grado SR80i. I enjoy the sound and don't seem to
notice the harsh uppers that some have mentioned. These might be just a touch light on bass. Also I don't
consider these portable with that huge cord.
I also have a pair of Ety HF-2s and find the sound too cold and analytical and lacking in bass.
I also have an ATH-CKX9i that is really too bassy for me.
Are there portable headphones with the RE-400 sound? Thanks in advance.
