Dear fellow head-fiers:
I need a new pair of headphones that are closed and full sized. I need the utmost clarity/SQ with a very good low end; punchy and full. You can consider me a basshead as well but I prefer clarity over exessive bass.
Genres I'll be listening to are EDM/Trance/Electro/Dubstep
Budget: +/- $1000 although doesn't have to get that high. Also excludes the price of an amp.
I'll be using them at home so portability is not an issue but have to be closed for the sake of my roommate.
So far based on what I've read in the forums the best closed headphones for these genres seem to be the ultrasones, but I'm not a fan of the sibilance in the pro900s and I have really sensitive ears and the signature DJ's don't seem like they give much bang for the buck. I'm just trying to get a consensus as to what is out there currently and get a general list going so I can find a way to demo the ones on my list and narrow it down to one. I won't be going with the Denon thousands or anything that's discontinued, I'm really finicky about second-hand.
Summary:
Closed
Best for EDM/Trance/Electro/Dubstep
Budget:+/- $1000
Not discontinued
Thanks!
