Hi there,
Im looking for a new pair of headphones. I mostly listen to alternative rock, metal, and more like that. My budget is around E200.
At the moment I have Shure SHR240A, but I noticed they give me a headache after around an hour or so. I don't exactly know why. It feels like there is a lot of pressure on my ears, really annoying. Music volume isn't the problem since I alway use low volume, and even when music is off the feeling stays.
Therefore, and because I want better sound quality, I'm looking for new phones. After some research I stumbled upon Grado, which is praised everywhere around the internet. I thought about ordering some sr225i but they are really(!) hard to get here in the Netherlands. Also, I prefer circumaural, plus, mostly when everyone is full of praise of something it appears a great deal of this praise is just "oh everyone says it is good, let's agree so it's like I know everything of it". I really have no idea if this is the case, but I'm careful when there's only positive opinions.
Are there more people out here with the same preferences but with a matching pair of headphones? Any opinions about Grado or are there other phones better matching my preferences?
Thanks in advance!
