Hey all
Sorry for not excessively searching before making this post, but I am a bit upset at the moment, lol. My Philips HP-890's finally decided to snap near the rubber headband hole on the left can. They have had a hairline crack since I got them, but I never returned them
They have got worse and worse, developing cracks in all sorts of places in that area. I took them off the other day, and... SNAP! Noooooooooo
Tried superglue temporarily, but it won't stay stuck
So, I am on the market for a new set of headphones. I am not sure how much I can afford, but I wouldn't really want to spend more than £100 at the moment, but if its just a bit over, let me know anyway
.
Well, I am looking for headphones that are reasonably easy to drive, like my Philips were, and capable of delivering lots of bass. I found that, apparently due to the 50mm drivers, that the philips didn't like really fast beats. Being capable of delivering mid/high sounds at the same time as the bass would be a bonus too
Having a removable headphone cable would be a bonus, just in case, heh.
After having the Philips, nothing can be too big now, heh, but I do generally prefer full sized headphones, either closed or open (whats the difference in the sound?)
I listen to headphones a lot, so I want them to be comfy...sound leakage isnt a problem, as there is generally no one around when I'm playing music anyway
Any advice appreciated. Sorry my wording isn't all that technical, heh, I'm not really up to scratch on the technicalities of headphones, I just want a pair capable of delivering a really good sound no matter what I put through them, am picky with sound, heh.
Thanks!
