Sony ULT Wear vs Skullcandy Aviator 900

Discussion

hi! I currently cannot decide if I should get an upgrade from Sony ULT Wear to Skullcandy aviators. I am from Romania, and the price difference between them is pretty big, the Skullcandy Aviators being like 210 euros, and the Sony ULT wear being like 124 euros (this is a huge difference for me). So..here is a list of reasons why I cannot decide if I should stay on Sony or switch to Skullcandy:

- I love the ANC on Sony but it is not the most important thing I am looking for.

- I care more for sound quality and comfort on head rather than ANC or heavy bass that could muddy the sound. I really wish for better sound/instrument separation in my audio.

- I mainly listen wireless on my phone and i do use my headphones on my laptop wired for games and such, though I do not talk, so microphone quality is the least important to me (I know it has a use for ANC, so the microphones do matter a bit but not a lot to me).

- I also don't like the plastic cracking sound whenever my Sony's move on my head, so that's what I am trying to get rid of when I look for another pair..

Sorry if this isn't the appropriate r/...I do not often use Reddit, and I do not have access to HeadphoneAdvice thread (nor understood how to gain it) :(
