Both. Momentum 2 and HD6xx.
Not ready to upgrade to Momentum 4. I very much prefer the metal premium look and feel of the 2. My daughter has the 4 but it’s not for me.
The style, fit, and materials make OTE a difficult and personal choice, even when you know what sound you're shooting for.
I've been seeing lots of people online lately complaining about OTE and the hot sweaty ears. I haven't had this problem, but there are many companies selling replacement earpads such as cooling gel.
I've gotten a couple pairs of Lambskin leather from Soulwit for Momentum 2 and Momentum 4 and they've been great. I don't get the hot ears with the M4 that people are complaining about and the memory foam is much more dense and high quality than the original thin ones.
Both the Momentum 4 and Beyerdynamic DT 900 Pro that I got this year have caused pressure and headaches. They took a couple weeks of use before they were broken in and now I can wear them for 4-8 hours without noticing they are even there.
Thank you! I would also lean towards sound over comfort, as long as it's not too uncomfortable with long term use. I have a nice pair of headphones (Sennheiser HD1) that I have been using for mixing and whatnot but they have no noise isolation, and it would be nice to be able to just use one pair of headphones for everything in my little home studio. Just out of curiosity, how long have you been using the MDR7506 and how have they held up to wear?
i love the focal bathys after years on sennheiser hd1 as my wireless cans. got them open box, honestly might upgrade to the bathys mg if i can find open box w all the traveling ive been doing.
on akg 701s and senn hd660s at home but mostly bumping kefs, but the bathys have been good enough soundwise with the convenience that they basically replaced any headphone occasion. idk i like them a lot more then i thought i would esp with the hearing test custom eq and shit. turning me into a focal fanboy lol
