Best is subjective.
I personally think AKG240s are pretty good. |

The audio engineers at my university love it. :)
It's the standard gear recommended to start with, for our school.
Which means I've got them as well, 5 years now. I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world.
They're pretty good. But it's hard to get a good feel of the dynamics imo. So your mixdowns will be quite transparent but some levels will be way off. You'll get used to it along the way though and it will get better :).
That and they go insanely loud without popping. Insane as in beep in your ears within few minutes... Really good stuff, just be carefull with that.
If possible, have a look at monitor speakers, which is a better investment in gear :). When I bought the sennheiser hd 25 they where 200Euro a piece. Don't know if that's still the case, but if so, you could buy a nice little set of monitors to start out with, with just a few 10-ers more needed! |

| The problem with HD25s is that they're a closed back design. The bass will be very powerful, but not accurate. I guess it has a similar effect as bass ports in monitors vs. a sealed design. |

Quite probably. The lower range is exactly where these headphones have some issues indeed. But I don't really had a problem with it personally. Well, 3-5 years ago I did, but now it just works for me. :)
It's really personal.
Leon, maybe it's possible for you to go to a professional audio gear shop in town? Take some of your fav music with you. Music you know very well. Listen it through the headphones and try to pick those that you think will work for you. Try to take the ones that give the most honest reference of the track.
Or go for the speakers :P |
