I wanted to avoid making this post as I didn't want to see "use the search function" responses but, after almost two weeks of research, I can't make up my mind.
So I'll put it out there - I recently moved offices to a completely open environment (no privacy) and I need a pair of closed phones to drown out the din. They will be used un-amped with an iPod Touch.
My top 3 needs:
- Comfort
- Great bass (I own Atrio M5s and Beyer 770s)
- Not extremely bulky
Here's the list of headphones I've been looking into:
- AKG K81
- Sennheiser HD 280
- Sony MDR V6
- Equation RP21
- Ultrasone DJ1
- Beyerdynamic 250-80
As you can see, I'm all over the place. Every time I dig deeper, I read about more pros and cons and I can't seem to find something that looks like it suits me. Unfortunately I can't audition so my purchase will be strictly based on my research. I'm completely open at this point so all recommendations $150 or under are welcome.
Help!
