Hy everyone!
I'm a new member of head-fi forum 'n I'm planning to buy my first quality headphone.
I'm from Hungary so sorry for my English if its not so good...
So the case is that I have a few headphones picked and I just dont know which one should I get...
The competitors are:
Denon AH D1001
Audio Technica ATH M50 (honestly these seems to be my favouite ones, but I want to get the best for the budget)
Sennheiser HD555/ HD595
Audio Technica ATH ES7
So mainly these phones fit the budget. The first three are nearly in the same price
I listen to every kind of music, but what i really like is for example: Nightwish, HIM, 69Eyes, ......, Anastacia, Madonna, Beyonce,M. Jackson, some acoustic and jazz thing, sometimes disco/trance.... so really everthing.
I'll use the 'phone un-amped with a Cowon S9
I hope you guys can give me some advice.....
Update: 10.24
The case is that I'm still confused...
I"ve read a LOT here in the forum, and I just could not get further...
The Denons are good, the A-Ts are good and the Senns are also good so I'm nearly there where I've started the whole thing...
Denon d1001K: well they seem to be comfy as everybody says, the SQ is also good, but I dont really know which one would be good for the Cowon S9. There is a mod thread here what shows you how to get more bass from the Denons and so on, but if its not nessecary I dont want to mess up with modding the phones that I buy (for a while)
A-T M50: These are my favourits since I first saw them. They are more practical/ better on the go then the Denons what are might be more comfy. More isolation, more/better bass (?), better soundstage, but better SQ then the Denons? thats what I really dont know....
Senn HD595: well they are open cans, what means (much(?)) better soundstage and maybe quality, they are very comfy, but barely no isolation...
I can get them in the same price!
