Hi!
I've been reading a lot of reviews about closed portable headphones lately, because I want to buy a pair.
I currently only have open headphones: Sennheiser HD485, PX100 and Koss KSC75.
I want to try a different sound to sennheiser and I don't want to spend a lot on them.
Here's what I have dig from countless threads:
Headphone Price in pounds
Beyerdynamic DT 235 45
Denon AH-P372 40
Audio Technica ATH-SJ5 35
Philips HP 460 23
JVC HA-M750 44
I'm not considering the AKG518/81dj due to reviews on being uncomfortable and super bassy.
Top things to consider are SQ, decent isolation (not complete isolation necessary), semi-portable.
I like bass but not overwhelming and muddy. My main music would be Indie Rock n Pop (Belle and Sebastian, Arcade Fire, of Montreal...), classic rock (Beatles, kinks), some lo-fi electronic (postal service, junior boys), pop (Goldfrapp) anyway you get the idea.
So in this price range, let's say top 50 pounds, which do you think is best?
I'm in the UK, so is something to consider too. Also maybe you know of a good shop in London to go and try myself?
Thanks!
