New Head-Fier
Hey everyone, Mitchell here, thought I'd start out by introducing myself. I'm a 23 year old programmer from the Netherlands, also like playing guitar, gaming and spending large amounts of money on mechanical keyboards.
Currently I am looking to upgrade my M50x headphones, they have served me pretty well for the past 4 years but I felt like it was time to upgrade.
Although I'll likely still use them when out and about in addition to my Shure SE215e's.
So far I have narrowed my search down to three pairs
Sadly I can't listen to them anywhere here though, that would surely have made my choice easier.
As for the use, I only want to use them at home. Besides music, I'd also like to use them for gaming and watching movies.
When it comes to the type of music I listen to, I'd say it's quite a wide range; metal(heavy metal, djent, death metal), rock, electronic(mostly synthwave), rap & hiphop(mostly horrorcore), blues, k-pop and classical.
The audio source will be a Fiio E10k, which will no doubt be upgraded in the future to something like the Schiit stack.
Hopefully this is enough information for someone out there to help me further in this search.

- Sennheiser HD600
- Hifiman HE-400S
- Phillips Fidelio X2HR
