theatreofdreams said:what are the differences between open and closed headphones? heard that in the case of Sennheiser PX100 (open) vs PX200 (closed), the cheaper PX100 is the more favourite choice.
Isolation, soundstage, bass, spelling, price....you name it...But closed headphones tend to suffer from reverberations due to it being closed and so on...Btw, PX100 leaks...So if you don't mind then that's alright. If you want the PX200, then you could probably up your budget more and try the ES7 by audio technica. It has a less boomy bass than the PX100 which sounds uncontrolled and vry unrefined to me. The ES7 has a tight and controlled bass as compared to cans around that category and price range. Alternatively, there's the Sony V6 which i really like but its not that portable. The V6's are really really comfortable too!
