Hi all I hope I post this in the right place on the forums.
I'm looking to buy a pair pf headphones for general every day use with my computer - listening to youtube, podcasts, while playing games and casually listening to music (more in the background while reading on forums like this)
Right now I'm using the Sennheiser HD 25-1 II for no other reason than that was what I had available. It would be nice to have something that blocks out more background noise. Comfort is key as I will have them on for hours so not too heavy or bulky and I'll likely will take them on and off my head many times during an evening.
I was thinking of the AKG K731 but then I got second thoughts reading that they, may, not be as durable, may not be very comfortable (some reported that they, at least initially press quite hard on the ears) and maybe they just will be too good at picking up everything which may lead to podcasts and youtubevideos recorded under bad conditions will be intorable to listen to. Maybe a pair of headsphones that are more "forgiving" would be a better choice?
Price range up to $150-$200 or so give or take. Thanks.
