Ok...I have finally started looking into the world of Headphones for my listening. I am looking into spending up to $150, but would like to keep it around $100. I have not been able to listen to many kinds of cans because of lack of retailers around where I live. Anyway, I am also trying to decide between open and closed cans. Which give a better sound? Here is my application use:
Playing PC games *Primary Use*
Playing CD/MP3 from computer, maybe occasional CD from somponent system
I will probably not use much for portable CD player, since I haven't used mine in over a year.
I listen to Rock music most of the time
Here is the list of cans that I am considering:
Open:
Sennheiser HD525 $100 local *Have listened to*
Sennheiser HD535 $130 local *Have listened t0, cannot tell difference in sound between 525 and 535. Can anyone tell me what the difference is, as I cannot find specs for them?*
Sennheiser HD570
Koss A-250
Closed:
Koss UR30
Denon AHD950
Any good Sennheiser?
Ok, so I am thouroughly undecided, and since I have only listened to a couple of models, I cannot decide. I have heard good things about the Koss A-250. Also, some information about the differences between the Sennheiser models would be appreciated. Thanks
/edit Comfort is also an important factor. I am not looking at supraural at all...I am only looking at circumaural. Thanks
