Ill be moving away to college soon and decided i want a set of full size cans for when im in my dorm or room. These will be connected to my laptop and i have an amp if needed. I dont need them to be portable because i have phonak audeo iems for that. I want to buy only one set of cans and keep them for a long time, so id like to get this right the first time.
The criteria: Must be comfortable since there home only use. I like clarity, but i also like music to sound fun. I want to feel the music. I listen to everything but mostly hip-hop (save the whole hip-hop/rap is not music comments), rock, r&b, and house/trance, so i need something with good bass. Im not a basshead by any means, but i want the bass to be accurate, clean, and upstanding. im willing to go up to $300.
The options:
Denon Ah-d2000= these are the top conteder from the reading i did. Are they a lot better than the 1001?
Akg k701/702= heard lots of good things. Plus they look so good and comfy
Senn hd595
Grado Prestige SR SR225i (or the 325 if they are that much better)
Beyer Dt 880/990/770= Dont know whats best for me yet
im also open to suggestions.
Please advise, i cant afford to mess this up (literally).
Thanks
