[microsound] Headphones

[Sune Petersen]

I am using HD25, I like them, the sound is neutral but in high end
terms it lacks a bit of the transparency and clarity that less
ENG-style headphones can give. They are still among the best sound
quality wise when compared to similar offerings from other
manufacturers in my opinion.

My main annoyance with them are that I constantly wear out the soft
pads and they are pretty expensive to replace, also the connectors to
each ear cup are at risk of getting bad connections so you need to
adjust them for them to work.

but then again I treat my equipment relatively rough (my laptops last
18month on average, the they stop working)

I really like them and has gotten to know the sound of them and might
even go some HD25 when I feel I need to upgrade. I will probably then
try to find some sort of protective casing that will still allow for
them to be easily transported.

So I would say it definitely depend on how you will use them, if it is
strictly for studio use and not on the road, I would probably go for
something like Beyer Dynamics DT770, I prefer closed headphones to
avoid spilling too much sound to my surroundings
