Actually, I already got them. And I am more than impressed, they are like nothing I've ever heard before and I can't hear the person next to me at medium volume. The SQ is great, though I'm not an expert. Overall I'm satisfied with my decision.
Screamo is generally more higher pitched screaming, while metalcore is generally more low pitched growling. I'm not sure about post-hardcore though, as I've never listened to it before.
I want a new pair of headphones or an IEM. I was looking at the SE215s or a pair of used HD 598s. Do you guys have any recommendations? I might use them in class so closed-back recommendations would be nice.
Budget: $240 CAD before tax
Looking for: Over-Ear (preferably Closed-Back) or IEM
Genres I listen to: Metalcore, Rock, Screamo
