Hi all,
I'm looking for a little advice. I currently have an old pair of Bose over-ear headphones (I guess they are the AE1). They're falling apart and it's time for a replacement. I use these strictly for my daily commute on the train off of my Blackberry -some days I do work, some days I just want to listen to music. I also use them the handful of times I fly.
While I am certainly no audio expert, I will tell you that I love music and I love listening to it in the best possible way. For what it's worth, I still buy CDs (and vinyl when I can find it) and I very rarely downlowd mp3s. But yes, when I listen to my Blackberry, it is compressed.
Having said that, I still want a good pair of headphones. I've whittled it down to two: Shure SRH-840 v. Ultrasone HFI-580.
I listen to all kinds of music, from of today's pop/hip-hop, rock (both current and from the 70's & 80's), underground dance, contemporary, broadway.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
