Default RE: Any Ultrasone alternative to Audio Technica ATH-M50s?

Hi,

I would recommend Ultrasone HFI-780. It fullfills nearly all your requirements: It is suited and sounds great with all kinds of music.
It is smaller and collapsible like the ATH-M50.
It is easy to drive because of only 35 Ohms.
It is a closed back headphone with good noise isolation, up to 35 dB.
It has a cool and stylish design, silver earcups with metal application and a shiny diamond cut logo. But as you already mentioned, that is highly subjective.
The only thing that is not fullfilled: It is not lighter than the K702.

Hope these lines help.
