Haha the xb1000s were too muddy for me, I might just buy the xb500s just to "collect". Still searching for my ideal can for electronic stuff!

Your two above comments are merely your opinions vs mine. Fact is lcds have flat bass to 20hz and the HD800s are rolled off making the hd800s a poor choice for edm.

Law of diminishing returns, alot of these orthos almost have a ruler flat response from 1 or 2khz to 20hz and treble rolloff after 2khz. This is good for classical music but can leave electronic music sounding too harsh and lacking bass.
