Im in doubt between two things: Buying a hi-fi open can and a mid-fi closed can, or buying a hi-fi closed can and a mid-fi open can. I can either have an ultimate open can and a decent closed can, or I can have an ultimate closed can and a decent open can. I'm willing to spend 1000 dollars on the hi-fi headphone and about 400 on the mid-fi headphone. closed cans obviously have limiations, but high end closed cans are known to deal with these limitations very effectively. I want to know if there is a lot of difference between a medium closed can (m100, akg k550, momentum, etc.) and a high end closed can (signature pro, edition 8, t5p). I always liked the idea of having an ultimate closed can which I could take everywhere, but I wouldn't be able to buy an ultimate open can. Do you think it's worth buying an high end open can, or a closed can? Is there a LOT of difference between a hifi model and a mid fi model closed can, or is the difference not big enough to not get a hifi open can? What do you think? Im only willing to get the ultimate closed headphone if there's a LOT of difference, or else I would be missing out a lot by not getting an awesome open headphone.
