I’m a video editor and wanted to take my audio setup to another level, so I got my ATH-M50x (excellent sound, lousy comfort). I tried some Bose Quietcomfort 45s, looking for a balance between good sound and comfort (didn’t work). I had headaches with both headphones because of the pressure of the headband, and although I tried to stretch it in both cases, I didn’t manage to finish a full work day using either one. I usually wear headphones for more than 12 hours a day, so I just had to go back to my old Sony Mdr-zx110, they didn’t have the best sound, but at least I didn’t end up with sore ears and a sore head.
Which headphones would you have chosen? I would like to hear opinions from knowledgeable people on the subject, since I am a novice in everything related to sound.
The 600, 990’s and 900’s are the only ones i bought new and they had similar clamp force, but the 990 and 900 was tolerable due to their padding
Thank you very much. I will keep that in mind when choosing another pair.
