Best for the $$Not cheap, but I'd rate them over the Sennheiser's that are $100 more... really outstanding separation, soundstage, clarity, range... if you can't spend $2000 on speakers, spend $200 on these.
Good balance of product vs costI did a fair bit of research before buying these cans. I went with these because of a few reasons. 1. Audio-Technica makes some the best headphones out there. 2. The pads were over ear, which is THE only way to go if you listen to music more than an hour at a time. 3. The frequency response was great (5-40,000 Hz), great lows AND highs. 4. Construction was strong and of good quality. 5. All the reviews I read were good or great! You can buy less expensive cans but don't expect the quality to be the same. And you can spend more and get more. But for the price, you get a good deal on these. If your still shopping around I'd recommend reviewing my top 5 against anything out there. Oh, and look to see when they were released. Newer technologies usually have a better product, (usually). Good luck.
one of the best closed headphonesClosed headphones keep sound out and in. Sound around you doesn't disturb you and sound from the headphones doesn't disturb those around you.
It is easier to make and therefore cheaper to buy open headphones. But the isolation can be real important.
The A900s have one of the best reputations of closed headphones. Slightly recessed midrange sound and very large size, but comfortable and good sound.
See head-fi.org and headphonereviews.org for more information and options.
BTW - I modified mine with some putty and cotton to tone down the bass some - my preference. I thought the bass was too overpowering. See headfi for the mod.
