Hi guys, just wondering which should I buy

Sennheiser PX 360 or Audio Technica ATH-M50 (fyi, I'm buying the PX 360 for RM150 cheaper than M50)

Genres : Rock, Metal, Acoustics, Pop, Hip Hop, Rap, Instrumental, Blues, Modern Electro, etc

Rarely use my headphones outside, mostly home use. Biggest Concern : Comfort, The lows and mids, Durability

Use for music and gaming, mostly on pc and smartphones, just using Purity Sound from Asrock mobo (Planning to upgrade to SB Z)

Yeah..Thinking of going straight to M50x but that's like 2x my budget  shocking.gif

How's the comfort with both of them? my current superlux makes me sweat and ears hot.

Additionally looking at Grado sr60i but not sure what to expect with open back headphones..
Don't think its very portable. It looks huge.

you can fold the M50X nod.gif

Helping a friend here, his budget is rm1500 to buy DAP + Headphone.
He has a Bose AE2 (so might aswell use that only, if he has to/or its a "decent" cans to pair with the DAP he will buy)
- the DAP i have in mind to recomend him : ibasso dx50 / fiio X5
- What type of usage : music/travelling/ light gaming (he already have gaming headsets)
- File format used in your source : mp3 / flac
- Genre of music you listen to : All
- Headphone/ earphone type : closed
- Other requirements (if any) : He prefer bassy cans/ for travel.

p/s: currently, i suggest him fiio x5 + ath ws99, but im not sure whether its a good combo or not. and also, its over his budget.

thanks.

if bassy cans is his preference, no need to waste money on the Dx50 or X5, the FiiO X3 will be more than sufficient nod.gif For headphones, either the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro or the Audio-Technica ATH-M50X nod.gif

i got very old IEM that is sony MDR EX52, however i only can use smallest size of the bud to penetrate my ear  unsure.gif
however for longer time i use, sometimes it is really pain and somehow my ear wet wax (even i cleaned sometimes, but after 1-2 days it is got back again) also pushing the thing go off. so i need to push in the thing for every few minutes...
Also it is very dirty... sweat.gif  need to clean sometimes ... so i rather get headphone for that case....

just now look at M40x and M50x... M50x damn sexy yohhh  drool.gif

i dont mind that big headphone carry on street, just worry the cable they offer, the shortest one is very long.... unsure.gif

at 1.2m, the FiiO RC-HD1 is the perfect upgrade cable to accompany the Audio-Technica ATH-M50X/M40X nod.gif
