getting ready for a new pair of headphones...
right now i have audio technica ath-m40fs. i can't seem to find much info on them, much less any comparisons...
i really like them, but i think i'm getting ready to move on up. mainly because i want something a little more comfortable for extended work. on these phones, the cord always seem to be in the way. the cushion on the cups sit right on my ear, and after a couple of hours, my ears start to hurt from being smooshed against my head by my phones.
i pretty much used these phones for everything. just plain ol' hearing music, dj'ing at home, gigs here and there, and writing music. -so i want something that sounds pretty flat.
in a nutshell, i'm looking for something that can be considered studio-quality, and double as dj headphones like the AT's but w/better ergonomics.
some of my opionions on stuff i have tried in the past:
senhiesers -some seemed kinda gutless, and other times, i just didn't like the way they sounded compared to AT's.
sony - i hate them all.
pioneer - i checked out these dj ones, this one time... i don't remember what model exactly. too colored, the highs where all up in my face, and i wasn't digging it, not even for plain ol' dj'ing, much less for writing music.
technics - some silver ones. i liked the cord, and how it was detachable, and i wasn't getting all tangled up in them. i was pretty cool w/the way they sounded, but didn't get the chance to compare w/the AT's side by side. but holy fuck those things were ugly. i found them so repulsive, that i almost refused to consider listening to them. i don't think i can stand looking at these thing s day in and day out.
any ideas? other brands/models? i willing to go up to about $250 tops.
