I'm still waving the flag of the AKG K 501!

For what it costs, for as easy to play as it is (meaning it doesn't require exotic outboard amplification, not that you can't hear the difference) and as comfortable as it is, the K 501 is a solid performer. For what I listen to, the K 501 is an excellent match acoustically and sounds very accurate.

Certainly the K 1000 is a product in a different class, but remember, the K 1000 isn't really a headphone, it's an ear speaker system!

There is nothing that beats the HFI-650 DVD-Edition, if You hear modern music. Otherwise a K1000, HD 600 or HFI-2000G is the choice No.1.

HD600 forever!

No doubt, Shure E5's the most dynamic sounding earphone. Its dual driver performance has been beyond my imagation and I was overwhelmed by the power it delivers in a small bodily mass.
Clarity, bass and board spectrum.. E5 easily surpasses even the most of full-size headphones. But unfortunately, I still feel quite uncomfortable wearing this thing.
