Which one? I know I know HD 600 is better, but the price tag is what stops me from getting it right now. These two are under 100 USD at the moment and so I was wondering for the last advice before I go ahead and buy them. An open back is a must for me as well.
All these headphones are not suitable for general mix. Senhiser hd 600 “add” extra bass and cut the top audio spectrum… You never will not hear a real sound.
That’s the HD650. The HD600 is the most natural sounding headphone out there.
@ Kurlykovs: The HD598 and the AKG K240 are not suitable for mixing. Get the AKG K702 or the Audio Technica ATH M40x. The last one should be in your price range.
Looks like audio technica arent an open back head phones. I have a pair of senheiser 280 and buying another pair of closed back headhones wouldnt be the greatest idea. Ive read about AKGs 240 being the classic headhones in studios so thats why I mentioned them.
I found a used pair of HD600 on eBay for half the price, in a very mint condition, Just take your time to look at the pictures, read the seller’s reviews, etc… There are plenty of those on the used market.
Did the Search myself a few months ago. Open/closed etc. Ended with the Shure SRH440. Really neutral and hounest feedback. It’s closed but no build up(imho).
what are the best headphone under 200 ? i already have Audiotechnica ATH-m40x , it’s a good phone but still lacking the stereo depth and the low bit small. anyone know? tried the m50x but share the same identical issue as well.
Would Beyerdynamic DT-990 250 ohm work fine with presonus studio 22vsl http://www.presonus.com/products/AudioBox-22VSL/techspecs there are the specs for it. I am not sure if 250 ohm is too much, there is a 32 ohm version of the same headphones… which one would be better?
