Hi,

I am torn between the Sennheiser HD558's and the M50s, can you suggest which one offers better overall performance. I am looking for durability and comfort, i mainly watch movies and play games. when i do listen to music, i mostly listen to classical (mozart, beethoven, etc) and some new pop/rock genres.

Which pair will suit me better? They stand at nearly the same price point.

PS- I like bass, but i've heard the HD558's, they sound good enough, is the M50 a huge improvement?

EDIT-

I will be shifting to a shared residence, would the 558's be a problem for the other person? Also, the folding design of the M50's is appreciated as i have the option of taking them wherever i want, eg- library.

One more thing, durability- i'm a sorta harsh user, i broke my shp2500's at bout 6 places, but those are shitty anyway. Which one of the aforementioned has better build quality?

Will be upgrading from HD202's.

For the genre of music you have mentioned the M50 might not be best suited due to slightly heavy bass of M50 .Though if you like heavy bass you could get the M50 . Between the M50 and Sennheiser HD558 the M50 would surely triumph the Sennheisers in terms of detailing . Recently in the Digit magazine review , M50 was rated as one of the most favorable headphone in its category.

The 558 are open circumaural headphones so they will leak some sound and not best suited in places like library . Another alternative to the 558 is the ATH-M35 which has an overall neutral sound and similar bass quantity to the 558.
