    Hi,

    I am new here.
    I just received some vouchers and was looking to buy a good pair of headphones.
    The likes of AKG, Sennheiser and Beyerdynamic to name a few.
    I actually had some favourites and they were the AKG 550 and the Denon AH-D400 and D600. So before buying them I wanted to try them and wanted to know which stores (preferrably in Dublin), sell these headphones or other brands like Beyerdynamic, Klipsch, Sennheiser, Logitech, V-MODA, etc.

    I apologize if this was in the wrong section.

    Thanks.

    The headphones forum heads are super helpful. When I'm at a computer I'll move this thread there.

    Do you need headphones for listening to music, gaming or also to make calls?
    Do you prefer a certain type like in-ear or over-head?

    I myself am looking for headphones too and tbh it's bloody jungle of them out there. But indeed, try some on in a shop first.

    I prefer circumaural cans and mostly I would use them for music. I need them to be noise isolating and closed back.
    I just need to try them out before I buy them. I have heard that the K550s don't have a good clamping force on some people.

    I need some shops that sell brands like Beyerdynamic, Klipsch, AKG, Ultrasone, Sennheiser, Logitech, V-MODA, Denon etc.

    My favs are The AKG K550, the Ultrasone Pro 900, the Denon AH-D400 and D600, the Sennheiser Momentum, the Soundmagic HP100s, the V-MODA M100s (I know they are not out yet).

    I can go anywhere around Dublin provided they have some of the models listed above.
    I can also go outside Dublin provided it's not like 100km distant. Still suggest if they shops are anyway but tell me where they are and how far they are from Dublin.

    I hope you can help.
