Greetings,
Well...been thinking seriously about upgrading to some good phones to go with my X5L 30GB and one of Xin's new SuperMacro-IV headphone amps that I ordered...
Currently, using some Sennheiser MX550's...
As for music, I listen to an extremely wide variety of music; Jazz (all kinds, modern, Brazilian, standards), Rock (60's - current), Electronic (not a lot..but some), and some Classical....
In my younger days, I studied music and played in some bands; jazz and rock, so have pretty good ear for what music/instruments/vocals should sound like too....
Had thought about Sennheiser CX300 or Audio-Technica Ck7 but wonder about Shure E4/E5, etc or other higher end units...although don't want to spend more than about $200 hopefully, but could go a bit higher if necessary..
My other key issue is that I want to be able to use them not only at desk/home but on my daily walks (30-45 minutes). So need something that won't make me crazy from other audio sounds...
Thanks for any suggestions!
