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.

Added/changed the descriptions. Thanks Progenitor.

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.
