What are your favorite over-the-ear headphones? I've had a pair of Audio-Technicas for years that just cracked a bit.
Thinking of replacing them with seems to be the current version of them: Audio-Technica ATH-M40x https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HVLUR54/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 or the M50x
I don't like the Sony MDR-7506s-- they've always felt a bit too fragile to me. What do you like?
headphone update: some more plastic on my poor 7-year-old M50s audibly cracked today, so I panic-ordered a replacement pair of M40s. BUT some of y'all have me really lusting for a pair of Sennheiser HD25-1 II's and I might just impulse-buy them too?
ugh, the M40xs feel much too tight on the very top of my head, no matter how I adjust them. 😕 😥
Pretty sure the shape of the band different than my old M50s, to my surprise and disappointment.
Meanwhile I found a pair of beyerdynamic DT 770s that feel pretty good, but don't sound great (fine for work headphones)
