Recommendation:
Buy the best you can afford when it comes to the things you use the most. This would probably include headphones. Cutting corners on something that doesn't portray your music in it's best light is not a bargain at all. If you are using the headphones for mixing I'd recommend AKG 240DF headphones, lightweight, and semi-open design(usually sell for over $100). They are totally flat. What you hear is what you have. Nothing more, nothing less. However, they require more power than a lot of headphones. A lot of people use Sony 4506 headphones (usually sell for $99) but I don't think they're "flat". They're closed-ear and very efficient (require less rms power to get loud). I would advise you not to scrimp on either headphones or the power to drive them. |
