I'm going insane doing endless research into headphones.
My use would be at work and public transport (general usage).
I prefer wired over wireless, and want to prioritise sound quality over features.
I've looked at the mezze 99 classics but I've read multiple times that they aren't tuned correctly. Next I've looked at more expensive models like dt1770 pro and shure srh 1540 and focal elegia. The first requires an amp, the second is huge and the latter is said to have less pronounced bass (I listen to hiphop often and wouldn't mind a more pronounced bass). The retailer websites often brand them as mastering and studio headphones and I don't know if it's even targeted at just listening to music. I really don't know where to look anymore. The sony 1000mx headphones get recommended constantly, but I'm maybe old fashioned in believing wired will always surpass wireless sound quality.
I'm a bit at the end of my wits with all this. Do you have any recommendations or which of these models is the best.
Thanks
