Here I come again..
As my company is slowly preparing for opening its offices (quite funny planning with another wave coming, but that's another story), I will be forced to commute again, hence looking for a new pair of headphones. My primary choice is IEMs, which I have plenty of, but sometimes I just can't wear them for a couple of days due to occasional ear swelling/ache (nothing serious, just IEMs are not comfortable then).
Country: Europe (no drop or too exotic headphones please)
Budget: 200 EUR (preferring a new pair due to warranty)
Form factor: fully closed, smaller/flush form factor, over ear ("borderline between over and on ear" is fine, fully "on ear" not)
Use case: casual listening during commuting, good sound isolation is a must, but passive is enough
Source information: just a 3.5mm jack on a smartphone, in the worst case I could hook up Apple USB-C DAC
Things that are important to you: comfort (I expect that they won't be on par with standard "big" headphones though), availability and low price of replacement pads, detachable cable, I don't mind to EQ the headphones. I don't care if headphones are with ANC or bluetooth with DSP, but they must be working with the cable in the same way as over bluetooth (some headphones deactivate ANC/DSP with wired connection) + user/easily replaceable battery is a plus, but I don't keep my hopes high for this feature. Headphones MUST work with thin armed glasses.
Your preferred sound signature/other headphones you've tried and liked/disliked: Marshall MID = OK sound after EQ, but get uncomfortable quite shortly being on ear and me wearing glasses. Marshall Monitor = OK sound after EQ, they sit flush with my head, don't loose seal with my glasses and don't look ridiculous. I really like them, but earpads started to flake and my attempts for replacement with 3rd party options failed - leather pads loose seal with any head movement. Genuine pads seem to be unavailable. I tried AKG K371 which I found not working with my glasses, otherwise would be my number one choice.
What I consider:
Audio-Technica ATH-M50x - I keep reading mixed reports about their comfort and design is a little bit off putting + they could be smaller
Beyerdynamic DT240 pro - not too many reviews/experiences available, genuine earpads not really available (Beyerdynamic doesn't ship to my country)
JBL Live/Tune/Club - I am frankly lost in all their models, there is no explanation about difference between them. I wait for new products coming out in August. Also no idea if it's possible to buy new earpads easily, quick search didn't bring any hits.
Sennheiser Momentum over ear (v1 or v2) - they popup occasionally used or "new old stock". Love their design, along with Marshall Monitor I considered them as the nicest looking headphones for on the go. Not important, but kind of important.
Sound per reviews isn't really great though.
As usual, any ideas are welcome.
Edit: just got info from Marshall, they do not have spare earpads available and it's unclear if they will have them, like ever. I was offered a 20% discount to buy new headphones on their site - they have only BT model costing almost 300 EUR. This is ridiculous, all I need is a set of earpads worth 10 EUR. It's beyond my comprehension that some companies produce headphones out of high quality materials which can last many years, but they are not willing to keep stock of spare parts when it's very clear that they need regular replacing. I will make sure to not support such companies with my money anymore.
