Hey Head-Fi,
I'm currently looking for an open/semi-open headphone to have good synergy with my UE6000s. By synergy I mean cover my UE6000s weaknesses. I find them to be somewhat too warm and the vocals/mids don't seem too clear.
The music I enjoy listening to is ambient, acoustic, alternative rock and all these genres and more with soft female vocals. At the moment, my source is a PC (z77 motherboard) and a HTC One. In the near future I may purchase a cheap amplifier like a Fiio E6, any suggestions on this would be recommended too!
My budget is around £50-60 (I'm from the U.K) but I'd like to emphasise I'm looking for best value for money so anything lower or higher which you think would be justified I'd definitely consider.
I'm looking for over-ear or a good on-ear headphone. I've been looking at the Superlux (whole range in general but more specifically) HD 330, HD 660, HD668B, the Grado SR-60e, KRK KNS 6400 (perhaps the 8400) and the Jaycar Pro (HM5/FA-003/NPT1000 clone). I know the KRKs and the Jaycars are not open headphones but I have heard that they do have good soundstage and open-like properties for the price.
Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated!
