Hi,
First of all I prefer listening over the speakers so I have never used headphones seriously. Now since my situation is different I will need headphones for some time. My taste is : as much natural sound as possible, close to flat response precise sound in every mean. To elaborate definition in the bass as well, perfect mids and not overexposed but present and defined highs. Listening all kind of music from jazz to rock electo and classic. Since I am building a headphone system from a scratch I would use portable source and latter on add some amp and dac to the system. So I have investigate for some time and chose those models : Sen HD 595 - 600 or beyer HD 770 - 990 and that is my budget for head audio right now.
I don't need closed design but that could be good think to have in some cases. I have never heard any of those models.
Now buying just by reading reviews and studying fr responses is not good. I have some idea of the sound, however that's just a scratch. To be honest I think that regarding my taste the pair of Sen 595 or 600 will be suitable. On the other hand there is not much bass on them as on 770 990 for more complex orchestra electronic etc ... Eventually I am concern about the 770 midrange because that's one of the most important part of the music as well. Now I am thinking about B 990 more and more... Ah sweet pain again
I forget to mention that the soundstage is most important as well as 3D presentation if those thinks exists in the headphones Some advice from those who had those models and compare them would be great help.
Thank you in advance
