Hello all,
I am looking for headphones to replace my Ultrasone HFI-680s. I bought them two years ago, and really enjoyed the sound signature. The only problem I had with them was that the pleather earpads got really uncomfortable to have on my head after forty minutes or an hour. I wanted something new that would complement them, but was waiting to save some money. Then, two months ago they were stolen. Until now I haven't had the cash to replace them, but I finally do. Does anyone know of headphones with a similar sound (or possibly a bit flatter - I wouldn't mind hearing the mids more!) that are more comfortable? I have looked a lot at the Shure SRH-840's but figured I should see if there are other recommendations first. I listen to mostly hip-hop, electronica, and rock, and will be using them straight out of an iPod Touch, iPad, or HP Envy 14. I'm willing to pay around $175-200.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts on the matter!
