New Head-Fier
Hi all,
I am looking for on-ear or over the ear headphones that meet the following criteria in no particular order:
- Comfortable! I usually wear headphones on for 6 hours of the day at my job while coding at work.
- Portable! I'd be carrying these headphones around listening to my ipod at airports or streaming from Pandora at work.
- Great sound for music coming out of a computer or ipod
I listen to mainly alternative rock, trance, and pop rock.
Based on my initial research I've come up with the following models that seem to fit my criteria above:
- Sennheiser HD 228 (is new and not many reviews yet)
- Audio Technica ATH-ANC7 (leaning towards this one, however this has been discontinued by AT)
- Denon AH-D1001 (a little more expensive)
I am wondering if anyone can chime in on any other models that I may be missing that may fit my criteria so I can do more research. My budget is ~$100. I dont care for active noise cancelation. Appearance does mean something (I think the Grado SR80s are hideous). If you have any opinions, please dont hesitate.
Thanks again
