Hey,
I love my shure 420 headphones, but i don't find them that comfortable. I love using them for flights, and train journeys, but would like some headphones to match them for quieter environments at a similar sound quality.
I have tried my friends AKG 240 Studio cans, and really like the sound they give. As far as i can see, currently on the market there are the AKG 601, and slighty higher the 701's. What else should I try out at this level? Am I jumping up somewhat from the 240 to the level that I have seen at the moment on the internet in the 610/701?
I would mainly be using them through my beresford 7210 at home, and possibly with my ipod wondering around from time to time. I found the 240's to be ok, even if I had to use them at near full volume on my ipod. They sounded great and were very comfortable at home with the beresford
Thanks for any advice!!
Jon
