Sony PVR-F1 is bundled with an amp by default.

Considering all the places that sell the HD650s for over $400, it still doesn't seem right to have it listed in here at $275.

I'll up it to 350. That seems a little better.

The HF-1 can be had for between $350 and $400 so you might want to drop it down a price category.

Sorry to be nitpicking already - I have listened to the AKG K701 with OriTek Zhaolu's headamp stage, and the K701 definitely do not lack in bass. I would suggest changing the description to:
3-AKG k701 ($250) Detailed phones with wide sound stage. Amp dependent for good bass. Often compared against HD650.
Also another addition:
Grado 325i: Most aggressive Grado. Sharp metallic sound with fast attack + decay. Great pair for electric guitars.

While I agree that an amp is not required for an Edition 9, my experience dictates that I would strongly recommend one to really make them sing.

Thats why I put a "2", which denotes amp recommended.

Well amping part is subjective. If the HD 650 has an "amp required - 3", I believe the Edition 9s being a 2 isn't a bad judgement, since they still sound decent without even a $300 amp.
I think the list looks very good jgognino  I can agree with the description on almost all of the headphones I have listened to, in your list.

Alright, I put a "1.5" next to those 2 HP's seeing as one version doesnt need an amp, and one could.
