Hello,
I was recommended this website by a friend and have been browsing around a fair bit.
I need a recommendation as to what headphones to buy.
I'm a complete novice when it comes to this world, and have previously just used headphones that one can buy at JB Hi Fi or Dick Smith Electronics.
Awhile back i bought a decent set of panasonic headphones but they broke recently. Since then I have bought two sets of headphones, both more expensive than the panasonic (each around $60), but still have not been able to find something as good.
I am looking for headphones with very clear and strong base, to listen to trance style music, but with good crisp high end notes too. I would like to try the closed back variety of headphones this time.
Ill be doing a fair bit of airplane travelling, and will be running the headphones from a phone or ipod. However they will spend most of their life plugged into a computer.
My budget tops out around $180...
My friend recommended ATH-m50's, and these look pretty appealing. Im pretty keen to buy them, but was wondering if you guys had any other recommendations?
Also, will I need an amplifier for the m50's to get proper sound if running them from an ipod nano?
Cheers
Kuba
