Hey all, I'm looking into headphones to use with my FM3. I have read through a lot of threads on the net and this forum regarding headphones for monitoring amp modelers. Having a tough time deciding. I usually get in my groove late at night when the house is sleeping since I work nights. And my FRFR time is limited for dialing in presets, so I need headphones that will translate to FRFR with only minor eq tweaks.
So my question is this...how loud are open backs compared to the the strings on a solid body electric?
I don't crank headphones up very loud, just to a satisfying level. Unlike in my youth when I listened to everything full blast. It seems that open backs are more highly regarded as far as a quality flat sound and comfort. I have never used open backs. I have looked at this on the net too, but without actually hearing for myself, it's tough to figure out how loud they actually are. I can get away with string noise level no problem at night. Otherwise I will have to go closed back.
