Well this is my first time upgrading from stock iPod headphones.
People keep on telling me how I should upgrade and I finally decided to splurge, but I'm confused and would love to have some guidance before I go out and spend money randomly.
The headphones I'm considering right now are:
- Super.Fi 5vi $70
- UE 700 $150
- Monster Turbine $107
- Monster Tour $150
I'm willing to spend up to $150 on these headphones. (If they're not too far off like $170, that's fine too)
(Value isn't really an issue for me. I just want the best headphones under $150.)
I usually listen to these times of genres:
- Alternative
- Pop
- Punk
- Rock
Do not listen to Rap or Hip-hop at all though, so it doesn't have to sound good for those genres.
Things I care about:
- Build Quality - Do not want to deal with changing cables or etc.
- Noise Isolation - I live in NYC and need these to block out the street noise.
Would someone please guide me?
It doesn't have to be from that list by the way, those are just some that stood out.
