Hi, I am planning to buy a pair of headphones to use in the office where I cannot use my speakers. All the headphones I have owned are Sennheiser HD202 and Koss KSC75 (yes, I am totally new to head-fi), neither of them gives me a comfortable fit. Could you guys give me some suggestions based on the following criterias (ranked by importance to me)?
1) Comfortable. I would like to wear it for hours and not feeling my head being squeezed. I do prefer those cans which completely cover my ears.
2) Sound quality. I like listening to classical and country music. So I prefer headphones which give a crisp, dynamic treble, with warm mids for vocal part, and and reasonably tight bass (I don't listen to rock, so no need for heavy bass).
3) Sound leakage is small, I don't want to disturb my officemates.
4) Perform well enough without amp, since I wouldn't have enough budget for amp recently.
5) Budget for the headphone is less than $200.
Could you guys recommend some cans which you think are good for the above requirements? Thank you very much!!
