What kind of headphones do you wear?

I come from a pair of Sennheiser HD 380 Pro from 2009. They lasted a long time but eventually last year I had (and wanted to) replaced them.

So I've followed the internet hype, like a real pro, and got myself a pair of ATH-M50X, which I'm not liking at all. Uncomfortable, I have to rebalance its sound via EQ, very weird non-natural response overall.

The final straw was that I finally invested (again) in a turntable which for now I can mostly only listen with headphones, paired it with a Magni Heresy ampli and now I hate the AT headphones even more.

I'm actually waiting for a pair of Beyerdynamics DT-770 (80 Ω) to be dispatched next week.

Fingers crossed.

BTW I've just discovered this community and decided to join the family. Nice to meet you all.
