Hi! I'm hoping to get a pair of headphones for a female friend of mine as a birthday present. Her usage is mostly music and videos; pop, classic, jazz, drama and movies. She really likes music and always gets the lossless version, so i thought i should get her a set of headphones that can do them justice .

I'm hoping to get her something that looks good and have some noise cancelling/dampening abilities. So i'll be going for closed headphones. I was recently looking at the first gen. Sennheiser Momentum Wired, any thoughts?

Rig : Computer 80%, Phone 20%
Usage : Mostly music, some movies
Headphone : Closed (i heard NC would be more expensive, would appreciate alternatives )
Budget : 1k below (cheaper is of course better )
Current gear : XiaoMi Piston earphones

Apologies if i mis-used any terms , I'm new to this and am hoping for some advice. Thank you in advance guys!

Haha, i don't think i'm the best person to ask. I only used it a bit (its hers) but i think its quite ok.

Then may i ask if Sennheiser Momentum Over-the-ear at rm750 is a good offer? Saw most places still selling around rm 950+

Ahhh i see i see, thank you sifu!

May i ask one more thing? I've heard a lot of good reviews for the momentum over-the-ear, may i ask your opinion on its performance at that price for flac music use (jazz,pop,classic etc)? Is it worth it?

Awesome! Thank you so much hahaha. I don't think my friend is that particular about it and i think it'll suit her fine. Thank you so much sifu!
