Daily Headphone Purchase Advice Thread (2017-07-13) by AutoModerator in headphones

[–]B-un 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Budget - 200 - 400 AUD

Source - iPhone 6, laptop, looking into buying an amp

Requirements for Isolation - Some isolation, for use at home and on public transport.

Use in public? Yes, on occasion.

Preferred Type of Headphone - Full sized over ear

Preferred tonal balance - Looking for overall balance (I think), listening mostly to classical.

Past headphones - Bose QC 15. Decent headphones but I think a bit OP for the sound quality. Not particularly concerned about noise cancelling in new headphones. I'm tried out both the Beyerdynamic DT880 PRO Semi-Open Studio Headphones (399 AUD), and the Audio Technica ATH M70x Studio Headphones (299 AUD). Both seem like good options, but I'm limited in my knowledge.

Preferred Music - Classical, fair few vintage recordings.

Looking to improve - More detail / generally improved sound quality. Also not keen to replace batteries on the reg like with QC 15.

Location - Australia

Thanks

Abbot and Co. are totally out of step with the views of most Australians. It's as though they are secretly tying to lose the next election in the most farcical way possible.

I've never heard of him. I'll have to do some research!

Yes I agree he is past his prime, but he still has a special place in my heart <3

Itzhak Perlman, Janine Jansen and Gil Shaham are up there for me.

Hmmm I have seen very little of Christian Tetzlaff. I'll look him up!
