I am very satisfied with the K240 S bass. If the DT 880 is at least as punchy it is good for me.

That's a good news. I was hoping for that. Now I just need to get convinced that even hip-hop and rap will sound good from it. I'm not all about bass I just want it to have that thump that you might expect from the genre. I understood for rock music it rocks :) and it's good for classical too...

Hello world of head-fi!   I read tons of stuff off head-fi and felt that now is the time when I really need to post to ask for your help.   I wish to upgrade from a K240 Studio and after even months of research I got to these two headphones. Dispite the fact that the SHURE is closed and...
