Which Headphones, KRK8400, Seinheiser HD280 or Audio-Technica ATH-M50 - 02/08/13 05:18 PM
I've bought three sets of headphones so I can compared and keep one pair.
I've been quickly listening to a BIAB song I created and each headphone has a different tone which effect mixing. This is hard!
KRK8400 - Probably the most flat of them all. Adequate but not overpowering bass depending on what VRM speakers I select. Sounds more HiFi like but not quite as loud even on full volume, alittle distant from my ears in terms of sound projection, maybe because they sound slightly quieter?
Seinheiser HD280 - Is also quite flat with probably double the bass. The sound projection is louder and closer to my ears. Build quality feels the most plasticy but very good sound isolation.
Audio-Technica ATH-M50 - Has the most bass and don't seem so flat for mixing maybe? Feels very comfy and built well, looks cool also.
Question is how do I chose which headphones to keep because one would mix differently depending which headphones they listened too?
