Hi all, i posted here a while back about wanting some good phones, well, basically i'll get right down to it
So far, i basically have it narrowed down to the beyerdynamic DT-770, and the AKG K 271 MK II.
Cap is 150$ sources include ipod touch second gen with a fiio e5 amp
I listen to a range of music including
MGMT-kind of electro-mellow-trippy music Example: YouTube - MGMT - Time To Pretend
Chiodos-kind of emo, antiphonic (call n response) metal Example: YouTube - Chiodos - All Nereids Beware
Coconut Records-kind of mellow, nu-disco dance music Example: YouTube - Coconut Records - "Nighttiming"
All of my music is encoded at 256kbps at mpeg-4, Ipod touch 2g, fiio e5
Thanks everyone for reading this long message, thanks for any suggestions/comments
- GOOD isolation-to block outside noise while studying/homework
- VERY comfortable-don't want to be bothered by hot/fatigued ears
- Fun, warm sound, i don't want a critical "monitor" phone
- Warm, controlled bass that does not cover up music
- Detailed-ness, would be nice to be able to hear everything
- non-DIY, i can't solder and i don't want to risk breaking anything
- low-price, like 150$ max, ebay included
