I have found my to go headphone in the K500 mostly. The Monitor 10 remains a keeper just like the K240DF. 

 

If the Z6 is no option so be it. I can live with what I have now...

Very much like the DR-Z6, maybe slightly less refined. Full, rich sound with somewhat recessed upper mids/treble, smallish soundstage. Organic.

Recessed upper mids? If anything I would say the total opposite in that they are aggressively detailed and polarizing. They have a touch of warmth to them but I don't think the upper mids are rounded.

 

Nice pic, now all you need is a Z7 smile.gif
