Default Headphones Recommendation

I don't know about the difference in US and Europe $$, but the AKG-240m
have always been some of my favorites. I think they are made in
Germany. I was bummed when my set got stolen.

Did you report both crimes to the relevant authorities?


Which crimes, the theft, or that I said they were made in Germany, my
not knowing the money exchange rate, or the fact I like how they
sounded, which was just my opinion after listening to quite a few
different headphones.


1) The theft
2) You getting bummed

:-)

Which is not a crime.

(Might be under Bush's rule here in the US though anymore - lol)

Which headphones have you listened to that you think would be a better
investment. I don't like the sound of any of the Sony ones I have heard.


I've never particularly been very fond of the Sonys and AKGs I've
heard, so-so on Sennheiser (though you can't argue with the HD580 /
HD600).. my personal pick has always been Beyer Dynamic, in particular
DT990Pro.

Perhaps not surprising then that many broadcasters use the Beyers for
monitoring, and the version with a boom mic for commentary.

Having said that I always thought my DT202's were good until I got a second
hand pair of Stax electrostatic 'ear speakers.' They knock spots of
anything else I've ever heard.
