Hi folks,
Looking for some help here please - I know very little about the current state of headphones and have started ploughing through reviews but could do with some recommendations to help me focus.
I currently have Audio Technica ATH-M50 which my son has started stealing, so I'm looking for a replacement / upgrade. I think they're ok but feel better should be achievable.
I listen indoors at home so don't mind open back if it improves sound.
Its a quiet environment so I don't need noise cancelling.
I sit within range of my amp so don't mind wired.
I prefer over-ear for comfort.
I like neutral sound with good dynamics (attack/decay) not typical v-shape with reduced mids to fake a thumping bass and shiny treble - maybe something used for studio monitoring might work?
Ideally I'm looking for something around the 200 to 300 quid mark but I would probably go as high as 400 if the sound justified it.
OK, there are the criteria - any help appreciated!
