I am new the high end headphone scene. Im looking to upgrade from an old pair of Sony headphones that Ive been rocking for years and are now broken.
I am considering the Ultrasone HFI-780 and AKG 272HD only because I have read good reviews on both pairs. I have heard that the 780s have a poor construction/durability and I have also heard that the 272s will draw out all of the flaws in compressed audio like mp3s and WMAs. I will be using these headphones with an iPod and a Mac with no amplifier. I thoroughly enjoy high end sound and my budget is about $250.
Am I looking at the right products? Any recommendations or further info on these headphones will help me greatly and is appreciated.
THANKS!!!
