hello,
I have posted this also over at avforums but thought i would ask it here as it is more dedicated.
I recently bought some senn 595's for home listening and so far they have been fine for the most part. however, for on the go i use some bog standard sony earphones with my MD player. Considering i spend an hour travelling each way to work, i think i should upgrade.
however, as i am on the bus obviously open backed ones would be no use so it will have to be closed.
The main point of this thread is really to get some opinions about which headphones have the best balance of comfort and sound.
i don't like the look of shiny ear pad material and would prefer something similar if not the same as that of the sennheisers although thought i would try a different make.
has anyone any experience of the the audio-technica a5,7,900's (the latter possibly too pricey) or the beyerdynamics 770's.
i have seen lots of people recommending them in closed headphone posts but not many mentioning specifically how comfortable they are and how hot/sweaty they make you ears get or at least not enough for my liking.
any experienced opinions on which will be most suitable and sounds the best?
thanks in advance for any advice you may give.
