I'm planning to get my first set of full-sized cans soon, but I have a few criteria that I need met, and I was looking for suggestions.
1. Versatile. They'd be used for listening to music (mostly metal), playing video games, and occasionally for TV and movies.
2. Not needing a TON of amplification. I'm considering getting a TotalBitHead or a TotalAirHead at some point, but if the cans demand a lot more, I'm not terribly interested.
3. If they're open, they shouldn't sound like I'm listening through a sieve. To be honest, I kind of prefer closed cans, but I know that open is where all the real sound quality is.
4. Price range is approximately $100-$200.
5. Fun, musical sound curve. Something like the Vibes. Nice crisp highs, but with a strong, warm bass to tie things together.
6. They have to best my friend's Bose TriPorts. I know that's not hard, but it needs to happen, just to bug him.
If something satisfies most, but not all of these, post it anyways. I'm open to all kinds of suggestions.
