New Head-Fier
So I go from an office with a bunch of loud talkers to a home full of loud talkers and kids who love to make noise. I am looking for a pair of headphones that can passively reduce noise so that some reasonable volume of noise can drown out that ambient noise. So I am looking for some closed style headphones with decent noise isolation? Am I saying that correctly. I watched some videos and read some forum posts, but I thought I would sign up and ask so I can make a decent choice with the forum's help.
I tried the Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO headphones and they did nothing on blocking the sound. Also my co-workers could easily tell what I was listening to, even at low volumes. They sounded great to my non-audiophile ears. So do my cheapy sennheiser hd 439 phones. I do wear glasses so that might play into the seal/comfort.
I would also like the capability to to be wireless. Sometimes I would be wired, but being able to be portable would be nice at times. So I thought about getting a bluetooth amp, but I haven't started my research on that yet.
So looking at any suggestions for good noise reduction within the price range $150-$300, interested in anyone's experiences....
Sound Isolation
Comfort
Sound Quality
Portability
Thanks!
