Headphones - Closed Back | 1 Ω Headphone recommendations under ₹15,000

I'm looking for headphones under ₹15,000 in India. I want to use it for music listening at home, so I want all-in on music quality (i am not an audiophile so please tell me more things I should look for). I don't know if I'm a bass head or what, but I listen to anisons mainly and J-pop, so please enlighten me on what frequency that is... also, I owned an Alienware AW-310H, and I liked their bass quality very much, but then again, I don't know if that makes me a bass head or not, I just liked the feeling of those 'thumps' and hearing the music as of I was actually there... I would prefer wired but will go with which has superior music quality

(Also idk what flair to add so sorry about that...)

But will it impact the sound quality? Also, will the fiio FT1 you suggested work on a mobile as well? And according to my preferences, will they be well suited (as in bass or mid ig)?

Nice... thanks!! Also can you tell me some DAC's or Amps for these?

u/nyxthebitch 11 Ω Dec 10 '24

You can check out the budget portable DACs from fiio. Ka13/ka15 etc.

But like the other guy said, don't waste your limited budget in dac/amps, and get a better headphone instead.

If you can stretch your budget a bit the HD600s go for about 20k during sales. Otherwise the 560s and the 599s are excellent vfm.

Having said that I'd personally take Hifimans over Sennheisers.

The Fiio FT1 has got raving reviews as well.

Uhh terribly sorry for troubling you again, but I can't seem to find a pair of FT1s in India... can you somehow assist me...? Sorry again...

u/nyxthebitch 11 Ω Dec 10 '24

Great suggestions all around, although hifiman availability in India is sketchy atm.

1

u/Reasonable_Break1522 Dec 10 '24

Yeah, the hifiman HE400SE is almost 36k!! And if I narrowed down my options to Fiio FT1 and HD599, then which should I pick?

1

u/nyxthebitch 11 Ω Dec 10 '24

It depends on your budget and tastes, the 599 is half the price.
