Posted January 15, 2022 Budget - 50-60 euros max. Source/Amp - PC How the gear will be used - At home, in a decently quiet room, but i would still prefer closed ones, if i decide to use them in a more louder environment. Preferred tonal balance - I would like to have a balanced cans. I am treble sensitive, so, the less treble, the better. Preferred music genre(s) - Pop, rock. Past gear experience - Beyerdynamic DT770 pro 32Ohm - very comfortable cans, but the treble was unbearable. Audio-Technica ATH-M40X - Very good, balanced cans, did not have any piercing sounds at all, but the ear pads were uncomfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you still have them? I doubt you can find similar sound quality in this budget, but you could easily get new earpads from Brainwavz. Personally, I prefer the velour ones, but I've heard good things about the hybrids - better sound isolation than full velour, but supposedly less hot.

A friend of mine lent me those 2 cans so that i can try them out. They were not mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
