Hey All,
Looking for new headphones. I currently own Xb-700's. These have a little too much bass, but they are very comfortable.
I was looking at the Shure SRH840 and possibly the ATH-M50.
I could also wait awhile and maybe bump it up to a pair of Sennheiser 598 HD.
How do the 840s compare to the 598s? (I know, different price ranges. Lots of differences) Bonus points to anyone who can also compare either one to the Xb-700s.
I would be using these with a fiio e6 amp. Any suggestions for amps would be appreciated, although i would like it to be cheaper and portable due to these being used with my iphone.
I listen to Indie Rock, Rock, Alternative.
I would use these for some movies, and some gaming, but mostly music.
Which would be the best for me?
Main differences between the two? Please explain why.
Comfort and design are also a pretty big factor.
other suggestions? Budget ~$100-$200
Thanks
