/r/headphones Purchase Help Thread (2017-10-08)

*Budget - 400€

Source - iPhone 7 Plus, Macbook Pro 2016, PC with Asus Xonar DG *(Planning to buy Dragonfly Red)**

*Requirements for Isolation - decent amount, since for portable use

*Preferred Type of Headphone - Portable Over-Ear closed back Headphones

*Preferred tonal balance - Balanced with deep quality bass

*Past headphones - In recent memory: Beyerdynamic DT 770/990, B&O H6 2nd Gen

*Preferred Music - Mainly Soundtracks, Classical, Hip-Hop (Nujabes, DJ Okawari, Marcus D, etc.), basic (K)-Pop, then everything else

*What would you like to improve on from your set-up - I only mention the B&O H6, since I am searching for an portable headphone: the H6 had an overall OK sound, nothing extraordinary, but somehow it lacked of clarity. Some tracks started to sound "muddy", especially with female vocals. The comfort from the B&O H6 was bad, the H6 is more an on-ear than over-ear.

*Location - Germany

I am looking for a well-built portable headphone, meaning no creaking "plastic", that offers a well balanced sound with deep quality bass rather than muddy bass.
