Hey, I've been looking for a closed back audiophile quality headphone to use as a portable set with my ipod.
After a ton of research I have it down to:
Ultrasone PRO 750
Ultrasone HFI 780
BeyerDynamic DT 770
I like to listen to hip-hop/rap so definitely want a lot of strong bass, but also listen to alternative and acoustic music as well.
I previously bought the Bose QC3's but returned them...I like the bass but the treble and highs were lacking completely.
I'm trying to stay under $300. I'm leaning towards the ultrasone's as they have smaller ear cups (can be worn on the street), fold up for portability and also come with a hard shell carrying case. Anyone who has tried any or all of them, please comment as to which has the fuller sound, bass on each of them, as well as suggestions for which to get.
Thanks
Also, I see that on the ultrasone website, you can purchase a 1.5M cord to replace the 3M cords on all of their headphones...does this degrade sound quality, because I would really like to have a short cord if possible and not have to lug around a 10 foot cord with me?
