The M40x
The sound quality on these headphones are amazing! However, here are some things you should know about the M40x's before you buy them:
Pros:
* Tuned flat (all ranges the same, not flat as in pitch, of course), so you should be able to hear all sounds really well
* Can get loud even powered off of motherboard audio.
* Over the ear, studio look
Cons:
* Clamping force is strong
* Super floppy, sometimes hard to control
* Can get a little hot
Things to consider:
* Closed back. Others can't hear you, and you can't hear others. Limits sound stage, but this is a per-situation thing to consider.
* These are studio headphones, so the clamping force is needed to prevent audio leakage both in and out of the headphones.
Personally, I love them, but your milage with these headphones may vary!
Other notes:
* You can make these Bluetooth compatible with [1] and [2] (probably [4] as well)
* You can make these a gaming headset with [3] and [2]
