I've got a budget of 25K to get a pair of as-good headphones as I can. These will be driven by a dedicated headphone amp, and will primarily be used for listening to a mix of music ranging from jazz, classical and prog rock. I'd really prefer options available in India, as I prefer to avoid going through the uncertainty and rigmarole of importing it, given USD:INR and customs.
Some options I have are:
I'd ideally like to audition all of these before deciding but guess thats not going to be an option in India. In place of that, would love to get your views on these issues and reviews if possible. Thanks!!
Some options I have are:
- PSB M4U1: Really really liked these when I auditioned them at Lakozy. 17K. Even the more expensive NC option is attractive at 26K - will be usable for airline travel too - all the other options are home-use only
- Senn HD650 - cannot locate them in Delhi anywhere! Think they're available for 25K
- Sony MDR-1: no idea if audition can be available sadly. 18-19K
- HiFiMan RE400: not available locally but very intrigued by electrostatics at this price point
