Guys any recommendations for a vented headphone that will sound great with acoustic musics? I listen mostly to rock and acoustic and actually planning to get the Goldring DR150 + Vero150 cable from Jaben because I heard that this was a great headphone for rock music. But I do wonder how they will sound with acoustic songs/covers? Thanks guys.

Rig: Laptop > Foobar 2000(Will be playing mostly FLAC and 320kbps MP3) > Schiit Modi & Magni > Headphone
Usage: Music & Gaming
Genre: Rock, Metal, Acoustic, Jazz (Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, A7X, Michael Buble, Boyce Avenue etc. Mostly are obtained via non-audiophile CD Rips)
Budget: Still saving money. Maximum should be around RM2000.
Type: Full size headphone. Open back or closed back isn't too much of a problem.
For referance, some phones I have right now: Shure SE535, Goldring DR150, FAD Adagio II
Please help me out. smile.gif

Forgot to mention, circumaural as well. But most of your suggestion is actually circumaural. Except the ES-10. Was initially looking at the DT880 600 Ohm thought. smile.gif
