So i'm having a lot of trouble deciding on what headphones to buy. Here is the basics of what i'm looking for: Closed back Good sound stage Clear center vocals So I was considering the Feenix Aria headphones, but was looking for other options as well. Most of the music I'm listening to is heavy metal and classic rock. I don't have a set price range, anywhere from $200 to even $400 is fine by me. Thanks for any help you can give, I'm a bit new to audio, but absolutely loving it

I've decided open back are fine as well, I don't think closed back will be necessary for me anymore

Well I love my K612 for rock like volbeat, but they are very analytical and far from something everyone will love and I have heard a lot of people like the DT 990 for rock also, but yeah there is a thread with recommendations
