Hello headphone gurus,
I had a pair of Triports (eargasms) and lost them then bought some Skully Candy (complete garbage, after 4 months the cheap plastic bands both broke and the muffs were all cracked. They were as comfortable as strapping tuna cans to my head) and now I need a new set.
I can't find Triports where I am now (in Bulgaria) but I see the brands
Sennheiser, AKG, Panasonic, Phillips, Sony and Thomson. I'd like to get something better than the Triports but I fear headphones which use single drivers won't have as much attention to each frequency range as the 3 x drivers setup does.
I on average listen to about 10 songs a month and otherwise use the headphones for 1-4 hours gaming per day (which amazes me - how low the quality of the Skull Candy's were to fall apart so easily) . I don't listen to hiphop or music with big bass. My Triports were great for both gaming and music, in the games there was 200%+ more happening than with my previous headphones and with music I could hear more instruments playing and everything was amazingly crisp and distinct.
I'm looking for something as comfortable, spacious and light as the triports (difficult to find?) and also something which has great sound so I can hear each water drop echo inside a cave, the flickering of a wall torch and crisp/distinct instruments and sounds in my music.
Does anyone have any suggestings for under $250 USD?
