How's it going Head-Fi. I bought Beats Pro just a while ago. Don't kill me! I know that's not the best decision especially around these parts, but if it makes you feel any better, I got em for 200. The only other decent headphones I had were the Sony NC40 years back. So I was actually very happy with these. I truly do enjoy listening to music with them. But I guess I want to keep moving forward. If all goes according to plan, I'll be able to sell these headphones for 200-250 and pull the trigger on a better set of cans. So that's where you guys come in! What am I looking for?
Well my budget will be pretty high (for me at least) for these cans. I'm willing to go upwards of $300. I'll say my budget stops at $400. That's twice as much as I paid for any headphones ever so hopefully I'll be happy with whatever it is I end up getting!
They have to be closed headphones. No exceptions. I'm gonna be using these every day on the way to school on the New York City Subway system. I don't want to bother other people and I don't want to be bothered by other people.
I prefer over ear headphones, but if there;s some set of amazing on ears it's not a problem for me.
I like comfy headphones as much as the next guy but I can handle the clamping pressure of the Beats Pro. I don't mind wearing these for 2 hours or more so I don't think it's the biggest deal in the world but it's always a plus.
What music do I listen to? Lots of Metal. Attack Attack!, Adept, Falling in Reverse. Lots of post hardcore stuff. I do enjoy some pop and dubstep but 85% metal/rock.
I guess that just about covers it then. Thanks guys!
Also just one quick question, I live in Brooklyn New York. I'd love to go somewhere to audition headphones for myself. Best Buy doesn't have much selection beyond Sony XBs. So any places in the Brooklyn/Manhattan area that does something like that?
Thanks!
