Best headphone for Ipod and music at work ?

Postby d2_racing » 30 Sep 2015, 07:36

Hi everyone, my loved SSennheiser HD 555 are almost dead.

I used a lot of crazy glue on them and they are falling apart.

So, it's time for a new pair of headphone.

Any suggestion for a good pair for music only and the music leakage is really important for me, because my coworker is about 5-6 feets from me..

I saw those the other day :

Those Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 :

And the AGK models :

Any recommendations or suggestions about those models or any other ?

Thanks :p

I really like my Bose wireless on ear headphones... Now a new over ear wireless model is out (based on the qc25 but no active noise cancelling), would try that one out...

Not the type of speaker you are looking for but last month I compared the headphone the guys had on set and believe it or not the Marshall over ear headphones came out on top.
Even over a set of Beats

I prefer Marshall Major. They separate you and workplace quite fine and are not too expensive. Unless you want to play music all the way up (which I don't recommend) you should be fine. Many larger headphones I tested have worse separation. Some a lot worse.
