I posted a while ago looking for a pair of portables under about $70. I ordered the Meelectronics HT-21, and while it sounds great for the price, I can tell it isn't going to keep me happy for long. My plan is to return them and look for something better.
My requirements:
From what I can tell, the Sennheiser HD 25-1 II is my best bet here, but I'm not completely sure. I'd appreciate if people could tell me how the Senn's stack up to my criteria, and please suggest anything else you think fits.
Thanks
My requirements:
- Able to handle anything I throw at it: I listen to everything from rock to classical to hip-hop.
- Portable.
- Runs well unamped, out of an iPod Classic: if necessary I could probably spring for something cheap like the Fiio E5 if necessary, but nothing more than that.
- Under $200
- Comfortable
- Durable: I would like this to last me 5+ years.
- Stylish: This one's not really that important, but if possible, I would prefer not to look like a complete moron.
