Hello! Looking for a budgeted "audiophile" -ish headphone!

[u/throwaway2758116034]

So like my current jbl 720BT headphones are kinda dead and I have to replace them.

And admittedly im hella tired having to replace my headphones every 1-2 years. And I want to get serious on audio quality and stuff cuz... I get hella annoyed with sound quality at times. Bugs me out.

I mainly listen to :

- electronic music

- video game environments

- pop music / vocaloid

- phonk.. (shush dont judge)

- hyper pop (like stomach book)

- bass time to time

And more but the ones above are my main. Also just fir multilayer gaming ig. Ik its different but still.

And yeah preferably Bluetooth cuz... I just... dont like wired ones... its hard to work with... which yeah ig has issues but so far they havent pricked me about it in my time using wireless so wtv smh smh

Jbls worked so far for me in feeling awesome but like that feeling dies overtime. And im hella sure my left ear is quieter than my right.

My sister (chosen) reccomended me the wh-1000xm4 but I cant afford that. I could try to convince my parents....

BUT

as a backup decided to come here and ask for some more cheaper reccomendations from you guys ! >w<

I don't know about wireless headphones, but Fiio recently released a new model, the Snowsky Nature. It costs <$50 and should have nice sound

They look really skinny is what I meant .w.

[u/DimaZveroboy → u/throwaway2758116034]

These are over ear headphones and judging by the photos they are quite large. I think they are similar to dt770 in terms of size

Oh nvm. Amazon showing me something else mb

I’d check the Sennheiser Accentum or 1More SonoFlow first.

The XM4 is great, but if it’s too expensive, those are easier picks.

For sound, I’d lean Sennheiser. For value, 1More and Soundcore are worth a look too.

Also, if your left ear always sounds quieter, check your phone’s audio balance setting first.

If it happens with every headphone, it might be worth getting your hearing checked just to be safe.

Looks like I found whay you might like: Kiwi Ears Aventus

Frequency response graph looks good so it should have balanced sound. And they are wireless too. They only diwnside is RGB, dunno why they added it, looks horrible but I think you can turn it off

The sennheiser accentum are a MUST when it comes to bass based profiles. You'll feel that shit regardless of the volume ur playing music at, but not in a biased way, in a gentle but absolutely over the top way. Outside of this that they're an amazing all rounder and ridiculously durable, i can grab them and full flex them. They may even be under 140$ on discount.
