New Head-Fier
My old skull candy headphones broke a little while ago and since then I've been looking for a new set of headphones. Open would be preferred (but not required.) I'm going to be listening to a lot of jazz/classical music with them, as well as playing video games(not competitively.) I really want them to be crisp and clear sounding, maybe leaning towards the bright side but still with some bass. I won't be traveling with them or have an amp/dac to use.
I'm not in a position to go out and listen to headphones so I'm not sure what would be best. Two headphones I was looking at were the Philips SHP9500(on sale at Newegg) and the AKG K240. I've heard the latter needs an amp to sound good though. Any thoughts?
