Hi.
I have been an avid Portapro user for years. It's not a decision or choice that I have put a lot of effort into, but they are cheap, sound great, and so I have had several pairs for music at work, gaming, etc., for the last years.
I had some old (mid 1990s) AKG K-300 monitors lying in the attic from when I used to make some music at home, and I've been trying them again for the last weeks. I'm torn! They have a lot of detail and clarity, but when I put on my PortaPros for the first time in months, I was really happy to hear the solid, warm bass/low mid in my ears again.
Anyway:
I have some money to spend on sound now (say.. $200-500) and I wondered if anyone can tell me if there are headphones with more precision and detail, that manage to keep some of the warmth of the Portapros. If there's something to gain on earbuds, I will definitely consider that. If not, I was thinking of open headphones.
Thanks in advance for any answers!
